Graham,

I did think about it.  I was simply double checking and surely there's
nothing wrong in that.

Sorry to all if I've wasted band width.  It was not intentional.

OK carol.

I think if you think about this one properly you can answer your own 
concerns here.

This is a poorly written message for a start.  everyone has heard about 
various internet scandles on radio, tv and in the newspapers.

I would argue that basic common sense should be telling you and indeed 
screaming at you that this is a hoax.

Please be clear that I am not meaning to be particularly critical of you
but 
just saying that to go with gut feelings with these messages is an
extremely 
good strategy.  There is bad english here and very vague meaningless 
explanations.

Cheers

Graham

It's supposed to be from
security@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

It reads

SUBJECT:  Barclays security important alert!

Message reads:

Dear customer,

Due to the dramatic increase in cases of online banking fraud, we took
certain measures with the purpose of increasing the security level which
will allow to keep your funds in perfect safety.

For the new security system to be efficient, you have to give us your
‘emergency’ phone number, using which our managers can contact you if
necessary. We recommend using your mobile phone or a phone by which you
are most reachable for our staff.

Please note that this procedure is really important and crucial. We will
monitor all the clients’ funds 24h a day, and in case of a slightest
fraud suspicion our managers will call up the customers to clear the
details and confirm or cancel a payment.

To add your emergency number, please authorize yourself and follow the
system tips.

To start the authorization procedure, please click this link.

I can't find this as a listed hoax but I'm sure Barclays shouldn't need
to be doing this and probably have all needed telephone numbers anyway.

Thanks for any help.
