Interesting story in the Telegraph - couple receives an email from their solicitors claiming that their usual client account is being audited and the email provides a new account to which they should transfer their funds.
Obviously they were were not suspicious about this ... but I it raises a question. How could Natwest allow funds to be deposited into an account if the company name was not the same? If it was the same as the law firm, then how was that account opened?
