Hey, I heard that was a highly accredited school by the way, I wish I could go there.  GEEK!
   Very Happy, yeah it looks good ,
But I was happy enough to go to Hampton Academy , proud motto "a place for every child in life " or something like that in Latin , and it was a true boast , most found their true place in life , mainly in the local remand centre , then graduated straight into prison ,  Laughing
the school had a nickname " the devils cauldron "  well thats what the teachers called it ,  Very Happy
we called the teachers 2 termer's , as that was as long as they stayed ,

back on topic
no plishing attempts today ,they must have read my post , maybe they have ordered a new thesaurus  Laughing

got another 6 plishing attemps today ,  I might change my user name on TMN to" plish magnet " Laughing

I did as instructed, but I cut and pasted the link into my browser , as my firewall won't allow email links to start my browser ,

I was most surprised ( not ) to find the link was a known plishing attempt ,
good try Mr plisher , but sad to say I don't bank with Lloyds bank either , keep trying you have about another 100 banks to go , but I will give a clue it's the same bank as the Queen uses ,
and they don't' email , they just phone or write and use a secrete password that changes from time to time ,
all UK banks have advised their customers  on their monthly statements not to respond to emails , but to phone or visit their local branch ,  so it's all a bit sad and a waste of bandwidth ,

Dear Halifax Customer

During our regularly scheduled account maintenance and verification procedures, we have detected a slight error in your billing information.

This might be due to either of the following reasons:
-A recent updates in our billing server ( Due to slightly problem )
-A recent change in your personal information ( i.e. change of email ).
-An inability to accurately verify your selected option of payment due to an internal error within our processors.


Please update and verify your information by clicking the link below:

https://www.halifax-onl***.co.**k/_mem_bin/for***og**** asp      ( my **** to protect the inocent  angel )

If your account information is not updated within 48 hours then your ability to access your account will become restricted.
Thank you

LOL, this one was not hard to spot, "we have detected a slight error in your billing information. "
personaly I think it was caused by option 1    " (-A recent updates in our billing server ( Due to slightly problem ) " well it makes sense to me , I am allways having  slightly problems, like, I am slightly late , drunk, randy, frustrated ,  anoyed , etc  so it is resonable servers also get slightly problem , lol ,
BTW,
I use mail washer ,and  give then a preview then dump them off my ISP's server,
mail washer will do that automaticly , but I like to preview all mail first ,
in case I miss any inportant emails telling me I have won  millions in a lottery I haven't entered  2funny

 Very Happy It's my ISP (Tiscali ) and it's infamous spam filter , if you complain they winch  it up a bit , and then you get no spam ............or any emails  Evil or Very Mad
got a good one today "From " Google add words ,  a short message but mentioned payment  6 times , and the need to update my account ,
as I had never heard of addwords , it got dumped ,  Rolling Eyes
I guess I am on some spamers list , not suprizing as the number of times I get forwarded emails with about 200 other email addresses including mine on them ,
and of course the greetings cards ,  Shocked

 Laughing today I got a funny from a  girl student , it had another 32   female  email addreses included , so maybe spam aint so bad after all ,  Wink............that is the 3rd time I have rercieved that funny (cute puppies and kittens  ) ,  Rolling Eyes

Oh guys if you want some spam , the easy way is to find an email address in africa ,
just send a message like , "great news John , I have just won £5 million on the lottery ",
then sit back and wait  Laughing ,
it's know as the reverse  "Nigerian Letter 419 fraud, )  soon as you get replies , explain how you need to move the lottery winings out of the UK b4 the Goverment start taxing it , so if they would send their account details etc, you will share the money , as you trust them implicitly etc.
BTW, works best if you have a disposable email account for this , evil6
edit to add ,
Ooops ,dont try this at home folks it's ileagal ,
