But then it was even funnier when Microsoft tried to patent the right-click. Yep, right. What stupid companies. Imagine if Principle Management tried to sue u2start and atu2 and those sites for distributing bootlegs and concert videos, and news.

First up, wouldn't the company (NationWide) use 'Dear Drew', not 'Dear Customer'?
The web address shows this: https://olb2.nationet.com/Update/Verify/default2.asp? Fair game, it's https which means it is a secure site but moving the mouse over the link shows this link, which clearly isn't that https:// site.

And half the sentences are cut English:
please provide all these info (banks don't use abbreviations!)
Nationwide Bank Plc announcing (have announced)
With the new recent upgrade in our security measure (our upgrades to security measures)
How ridiculous.
