Received this email yesterday with an attachment, panicked a bit because I had been in Scotland last year, wondered if I had a fine or something I did not pay, anyway my partner tried to open the attachment. I phoned the courts in Scotland (L Mcnamara does work at the Scottish court) but was told they are aware of the email, dont know where it came from, to ignore and delete it.
I dont know if its a coincidence but I was unable to log onto my bank in the normal manner. From my banks website someone or something was taking me to a bogus log in page and was asking for my full pin and password to continue with the log in. Usualy I am asked for 3 various digits from my pin and password.
The same sort of scam tried last year to get my log in details so luckily I was aware.
I have spent all day backwards and forwards with online security and the bank getting it sorted.
If you recive this email delete it.
