Now check out the url of the link compared to this one
Not even secure either looks a bit dodgy to me. Now ive known of this scam before now they want you to enter your details so they get them and can access your account. Just thought id warn people in case no one has heard of this scam before do no enter your details if you get an email form halifax. I once got a message when i logged into my Barclays account online saying they would never email you asking you to re enter your details
 
just dont click on links in emails and ull be sorted :) general rule of thumb

thnaks for the heads up tho

Cheers

u have a copy of the email with header dont delete it
i will pm u the full info
go see the police he is commiting fraud
print out the e-mail and also print out the header this will have the ip
 
thing is this fella must be thick fancy sending an email for a scam from ur own website and leaving ur details to be found
sound to me to be a young dickhead lol deserves to be done
problem, is he may have a pensioner actually sending there details and this cnut will clean them out
prick do him if he had sent it to me i would
 
Not too sure how to print the header in hotmail, dont know if ya can. Halifax have a Recieved suspicious email link and ive forwarded it to them. Thats exactly why it pisses me off he will have already scammed oap's out off loadsa money.

try right clicking on the email and go to properties
 
go to inbox
right click on the sender of the mail (don't open it)
select 'source code'
it will show the info and IPS..
look for X-originating IP
 
main site is cross stiching, registered is webhosting and other site has an address to switzerland....most not been updated in a while, feeling they may have been hacked, or whoever registered new domain realised idiot who runs site registers it under his address...no scammer is that stupid to leave glaring details behind
