Warning, Fake VM Phishing e-mail doing the rounds
I don't know if I have put this in the right section, but if I haven't then feel free to move it mods.
I have just received an e-mail with the title: Important information about your email service - please read
It has been sent from: Virgin Media <noreply@mailer.vm-online.co.uk> which doesn't even appear to be a Virgin Media domain.
These e-mails appear to be phishing e-mails (unless a member of VM staff cab tell me otherwise). So if you receive one, then don't respond, or click on any of the links.
Stay Safe

There is another similar Email coming from HM Revenue and customs but if you check the link you'l see it sends you to some dodgy site.
Everyone be careful!
