I had an email come up that said my account with HSBC had been terminated and to click on if this is an error. I have no account with HSBC.

My security had blocked me doing anything about replying but thought I would mention it.  :)

Yes, and there are also plenty of the UPS/Fedex type saying they couldn't deliver a parcel. DON'T open the attachment! Delete the lot.

I get the HSBC one regularly despite marking it as spam on AOL. I do not have an account with them either.
