Halifucked Or Spam From the Halifax
Over the last couple of days, I have received several spam e-mail from a marketing company, working on behalf of the Halifax. They all offered me a new credit card, which is like offering someone like Andy Murray a new tennis racket, as the ones I’ve got, are perfectly adequate for my modest needs.
So not only do we have bail out this wunch of bankers, but we have to endure their spam in our inboxes. Interestingly, it very much looks genuine and some of it has come to e-mail addresses, I’ve not used in at least ten years. I’ve kept them as spam traps for tossers like these and they’ve worked well.
Interestingly, the Halifax web site appears to have no means of contacting the bank on it, that is obvious to an irate non-customer.
The Anonymous Widower 
I receive regular emails purporting to be from banks. I never open them, they go straight to “deleted mail”. The only exceptions are when I have had a call from the bank to tell me they are emailing me something, or I have called and asked for something to be sent. Often these emails are from banks I have no dealings with.
A real annoyance are the unsolicited phone calls, which one has no way of avoiding. I had one today purporting to be from a government agency relating to grants. Before giving any information, I asked the caller to confirm that he was actually working for a government agency. I put the phone down when he told me the company he represented. He was trying to sell me double glazing, cavity wall and loft insulation!

These weren’t from crooks, but from a company paid for by HBOS. I checked where they had come from and it all looked like a genuine e-mail marketing company, if such a thing exists.
