Warning, fake email

Lately I have been busy which is why I have not updated too much. I have just moved into a new house and that is slowly coming to look like a home now. This is in a nice place outside of the CBD yet it is still inner city in feel yet also has the appeal of being in the suburbs. Transport to the city is quite limiting which is a pain.

I am not sure if other people have received an increase in the number of emails trying to get you to give your bank details, yet i seem to average about 2-3 per month. I like the ones from banks which I have never had accounts with. The most recent one I received was from the ATO (Australian tax office). They went to such convincing efforts that I nearly bought it, yet something about the message gave it away that it was fake.
