Just had an eamil from sales@onyourbike.co.uk saying they have recived my payment for an order.

Have not ordered anthying lately and never heard of this company. The link to the order details does not open. Searched google - they are listed, but url does not open.

Sounds like phishing - anyone else had similar experiance

I just had the same thing, it says that I placed the order on 28 March 2010!

I opened up the website (not from the link), the site is down for maintenance.

Phishing most definitely.

The op said he has never heard of them though, never mind being one of their customers. So why do they have his email address I wonder?
