Dear smithers2005@btinternet.com
,
We recently noticed one or more attempts to log in to your Barclays IBank account
from a different IP address.
If you recently accessed your account while traveling, the unusual log in
attempts may have been initiated by you. However, if you did not initiate
the log ins, please visit Barclays IBank as soon as possible to check-up your
account information:
ibank.barclays.co.uk/olb/p/LoginMember.do
Thanks for your patience.
Sincerely,
Barclays Centre

Deffo a scam. I got one of these shortly after accessing my Woolwich on-line account. I nearly got caught out because Woolwich are part of Barclays Bank. I contacted Woolwich who confirmed it was a scam and asked me to forward the email to them for further investigation.
Got to keep on your toes with these snkeaky buggers.

Had exactly the same email about a week ago, definately somebody trying their luck, with a very poor scam. I am not, and never have been, with Barclays. Just deleated it. B*****ds.
