Thanks for the link Matt. I've forwarded it and received an aknowledgement. Wait and see if anything happens.

I agree it does look authentic, other than it's in courier font and plain text.

The giveaway though, I don't bank with Natwest :D

I get these from time to time but always try to report them in the hope that some poor gullible sod doesn't contribute to the thieving bast@rds.
