Oof I must be tired.. I almost fell for a phishing email this morning. No danger of me clicking the links in it (I can never be THAT tired) but I almost called the bank to complain they're still asking me to confirm my details when I've already done it - which was an actual thing the bank did recently via their app - hence the fooling.

Went back to look at the email and noticed that 1) it actually came from some random onmicrosoft account address and 2) it arrived in the 1 of my 3 email addresses which isn't registered with the bank lol

Stay vigilant, folks. And obviously never ever click links from emails unless you are expecting that email.
