Indeed.
I wonder whether it's a coincidence I've just started getting
St George phishing attempts. I get between 10 to 100 of phishing
messages per week, and they're usually National, Commonwealth,
occasionally ANZ, and a handful of foreign banks and ebay/paypal.
Only today have I got some St George ones.
I can't remember the last time I got them for St George.
