Yeah I get loads too! Always amuses me...........Halifax saying there's been suspicious activity on my account........the account I don't have and never had!!!!!!!

 

I just forward them to the banks own fraud email address!

 

Does get annoying though!

I learnt never open unless you know who it is, after getting a worm that was nearly impossible for me to get rid of.

i get them all the time too, I was going to give them an abusive email or give them all false details but just delete them, just incase.

Constantly. If you send a reply back to Nigeria it just bounces back anyway. Some of the grammar and spelling is quite entertaining though.
