I've just received an email.
It contains the following 4 images:
Yes, an email that looks like a load of text is actually four images. The first bullet in this pseudo-text has the excellent advice "Please do not click on any links you do not recognise."
The middle two images (the last three bullets, with the bold telephone number and the bold "here") not only are links, but you are explicitly invited to click on one. These links have extremely unrecognisable URLs like "http://links.mkt529.com/servlet/M=
ailView?ms=3DMjE4MTcxMTAS1&r=3DMjExMTk3OTQyNDQwS0&j=3DMTMwMzMzNDgwNwS2&mt=
=3D1&rt=3D0"
So, an email warning me about a potential data breach that is itself either (i) a phishing attack; or (ii) from someone who does not understand their own security advice!
Sigh.
