Not sure, Gra - but Hamstrung has reminded that my bank (from where the funds will be drawn) guarantees all online activity. Woo-hoo!!! (Although the week or so without a debit/cash card in the house will be a pain).

Chris, in answer to you, I've now realised that good t'internet security awareness means that any hyperlink in an email should be ignored. If an email prompts you to click and do something, type the website's address in yourself and find out/do it that way. That emial of yours seems suspiciously similar to the one I got a few months back. Also, what's your take on reporting this, mate? I don't see it as being a high priority for the local bobby. Is it worth it?
