Default Click and Buy Scam

Guys, I received an "Information: Changes to General Terms and Conditions" email today quoting my "Customer ID no. xxxxxxx"

They supposedly keep your card/bank details and are a proxy fror online payments for games and music mostly from what I can find out.

I don't have an account with them and suspect it is a phishing site.

There is a subtle, "If this message does not appear correct, please click here" link which I didn't of course.

Has anyone else had this?

Not yet, and not even in the spam box where Virgin put 99 % of my spam input.

Hi all

Another common one is a blanket e-mail from Banks stating your account is compromised. Usually I find Banks that you are not a customer of.
