Halifax and Abbey Accounts

[threespires]

I've had emails today from Halifax and Abbey. It's odd that both these accounts [ which I don't have ] should have problems. I wonder why the Abbey, a Spanish firm, has a security branch with an Australian email address. I'll bet it's to do with the big lotto win I've had in Nigeria.
