Any St George customers out there...?

Just thought I'd let people know that I just got an email pretending to be from St George asking me to click on the link to their website and enter all my details as a part of some vague and ill-defined "security update". The link in the email pops up an authentic-looking window with a form for you to fill out your credit card details and so on, which when you click the button to submit your details sends all the info to god knows who, when then spend all your money. There's been a whole bunch of these floating around the internet recently, targeting places like Citibank and PayPal, so St George is just the latest in a long list...

Not that I think anyone reading this would be stupid enough to fall for it, but I just thought people might like to know it's out there, and maybe let anyone else they know with a St George account to be on the lookout for it. (More details about these types of scams can be found in usual place, under the "What's New" section...)

(And why the bloody hell they sent it to me when I don't have any accounts with St George remains a mystery...)
