I don't bank with NatWest but I am switched on to fraudsters and received this e-mail below. So beware. I have compared the real login page to the one the link takes you to and it is nearly identical.

Good point, done ;)

I get these all the time!-probably for about a year, just delete it!

yep, I get at least 3 or 4 of these for different banks every day.

Just a warning for fellow forum members because this is one of the better ones I have seen.

Thanks for the warning, I'm with NatWest, however, they have just sent me a card reader, which I now have to insert me card into for online banking, so they are tightening security.

Ditto, but ive no fookin idea how to use it!!!

I didn't see the link before it was deleted, but that is normally the biggest giveaway. If you hover the mouse over it and it looks like the genuine link eg http://www.lloydstsb.com then its probably ok, if it's something like http://www.lloydstsb.comatsomewherelse.com then they are trying to hide where it really goes - don't go near it !
