I got spam e-mails from something like absa @ absa .co .z or sb @ standardbank .co .z (I placed spaces in these e-mail addresses for posting) or so. But, if you're not careful, you will miss the final suffix of '.z'. If it was a real bank e-mail, it should ends with '.za' for South Africa. BTW, Top Domain Level '.z' is not registered AFAIK. So, check out those headers... (to get at the tail of the story... ;-D ) Oh, it is not the first time Ted's address has been hijacked.
