[Misc] Secure message from Bankline? (re Seagulls Player?)

[Fungus]

Anyone else get an email from Bankline, saying they have a "secure message"?

I assume it's a scam, as the body of the message gives no indication what it's about, just that I need to log-in with an authorisation code.

The thing is, they've sent it to an email address that was only ever used to sign up for Seagulls Player.

Has their database been hacked, or am I being paranoid?

Ignore it for sure.

Might be worth letting the club know in case they aren't already aware.

Yes, that's the bu66er!

Looking back through my records, it's an email address I used with the old Seagulls Player, rather than whatever the new thing is called; so it's not a current system, and I doubt the club would be able to do anything?

If you're sure that's the only time you've used that email address then I agree with others that you should report it to the club. I think they'd want to know if any part of their systems data, or the systems of a supplier to the club, has been mis-used. Other club supporters may similarly be at risk.

I received this today on my work email, and I have never registered that address with any Albion account, so not just limited to seagull player.

The Nigerian prince needs to transfer $2m to your bank account to patriate his legitimate inheritance into Europe. But to confirm your bank details with the Bank of Zurich (Lagos branch), please transfer £250 to the same account.

Go ahead, it's legit.
