In fact I had one from Marks & Spencers the other day, warning me that there may have been some fraudulent activity on my M&S card, taking me over my agreed limit of £1000. Had a good chortle at that one. But I guess it's a common credit limit so it would work on the right people.
Fishing.

Think of the number of fish that swim past your baited hook. But you just need one dumb hungry curious ill fated fish to make a dinner for you. Works the same for these phishers, except they can set thousands of baited hooks in thousands of ponds for the expense and trouble of a few keystrokes. It would seem to be a very lucrative, very easy career, leaving aside the violations to our moral and legal codes.
