Just a quick warning. I had an email supposedly from O2, saying 'thanks for staying with O2 your bill is ready to view £445.93 !! with a link to view my bill. It used my name and everything and looked almost genuine. It would be very easy for someone to go to 'view my bill' in pure panic (my bills are normally about £10!)
I make a rule of never following links and, if in doubt, go into the company cocerned's own website or phone.
Plaese watch out for this scam

Thanks for the mention @Anonymous and thanks to @Anonymous for taking the time to report this. I'll pass this on but I may need a bit more info. If I do I'll drop you a private message @Anonymous.

I get similar emails pretending to be from amazon regarding a £400 order that I've not made. Obviously never click the link and when I login to my account it's fine.
