I have a Commonwealth account too, so it could have been a bit of a worry if I wasn’t aware of the scams

I get the same type of emails relating Banks that I have never use or it has been years since i ever had an acc with them.... cant catch me you bloody morons

If you receive this, rather than clicking the links, ring your bank or log in to your account the normal way to see if it's frozen.

Any email that tells you something like this: 'Contact us urgently via This Link" is a SCAM!

Yeah I received this and many more I delete without opening

The senders address is not right!!
First rule of emails - check the senders address if it does not look right or is different to what you usually see DO NOT EVEN OPEN IT!!
CBA will NEVER send a email with THAT senders address (the spacing and font is wrong for a start).

Which is why anything important is added to the emails safe list so it weeds out the fakes as much as possible.
