Just thought I would post this, there is a nasty NatWest spam email doing the rounds that sailed straight though the idnet filters (set on the highest spam setting) It looks very legitimate except it asks you to download a .doc document. NatWest never do this, also they always include part of your postcode in their emails, this one does not. The biggest give away was the date was set to 02 March 2018 on the email. Maybe they were trying to illicit people into clicking on a link in a hurry, but if you do get one report it to NatWest if you bank with them and if you can capture the actual email header not on one that you see, and any other details like the phone number on this particular one, it all helps.
Damned, if you do damned if you don't
