    I got another one. Also sent to abuse@365online.com.
    This morning my original one has been returned as undeliverable. :(

    Maybe we should use this email address... 365security@boimail.com

    Just assumed that abuse@*********.*** was a standard reporting email format.

    Got a similar one a few weeks ago. Do people actually fall for this?

    You would be surprised. My thought is, if people weren't falling for it then they wouldn't keep sending out the phishing emails. They obviously get some bites.

    The more we can warn people the better in my opinion. Regardless of whether they realise it or not, it's best to make sure.

    Hi All,
    Below is text of an email I just received from Bank of Ireland 365 Online. I don't have any dealings with them, do you think its from a chancer (tongue firmly in cheek)??????

    Let friends & colleagues know this is doing the rounds and needless to say don't visit the link.

    Regards,
    AJB
