Hi,
Talk about stupid scam mail, click the link on the one below and it takes you to where you basically just type in your credit card details. Thing is they ask for a zip code hahahaha and it is supposed to be for a UK tax refund :rolleyes: ... Also the install language option pops up in IE lmao .. I have forwarded the email on to my friend Paul who just happens to work for customs and the Inland revenue departments. When we meet I tend to boo and hiss at him lolol :D

IE even flagged it. Guess the phishing filter works.
