In my Junk mail box there is an email entitled 'UK Order' a number 11916734 and an attachment. I do not recognise it and have not opened the attachment. Not sure if it is valid or not. Worried. Anyone else had this type of thing. I always delete the false bank emails etc but this is puzzling me.

I once made the mistake of opening an email purporting to come from my bank. I responded and immediately realised that I'd been had. Rang my bank and had to cancel my debit card at once and change my on-line details. Take it from me - if you're even the least bit suspicious, report it as spam. You must have been suspicious to raise it with us.

OH received a bank email and started to fill it in but realised his mistake and stopped. This must have been playing on his mind because he was up in the middle of the night changing all his passwords.
