| Possibly a real issue though is how did the sender get your email address? ? Have people other than Kiwibank customers received these emails, or just Kiwibank customers? ? If non KB customers it would imply a grand "shotgun" approach, but if ONLY KB customers, then perhaps KB security has been compromised. . . . how else are they getting KB customer email addresses? |

| Easy, they just spam any new zealand email address they can find. Chances are they will hit one at some stage. Its not rocket science |

im not even a KB customer, but i seem to get them targeting alot of NZ banks, and the occasional overseas bank, but i never used to get them once upon a time, i dont know how they got my email address, i dont use mine over the internet for forms i fill in etc, i always use my hotmail address, which gets spam from day1 lol.
Id say they get our email addresses through infected machines with spyware that read the addresses in the address book and send them back to them for spamming. |

| I very seldom get spam except from offers of updates etc from programs I have. I am quite happy with that situation and politely decline those offers which some have generously made. Ta. |
