there's a phisher about...

Just had a call at work from someone claiming to represent the Nationwide. He wouldn't tell me which account he was calling about, and then he accepted a wrong answer to one of his security questions. Either he was a genuine incompetent, or he ws a fraud - either way I don't want to be dealing with him.

So this is a reminder. When someone wants you to answer their security questions, remember to get one wrong. If they accept that, hang up.
