Posting news of this one since it avoided my spam filter, and it's always good to remind people about these scams. Basically, it's the standard "please give us your bank details so we can steal all your money" attempt and looks like this:
Dear Barclays member,

Not quite sure why dutch nurses are trying to steal people's bank accounts but their website is clearly spoofing barclay's website  _________________ Whedon: We will rule over this time slot, and we will call it... "This Time Slot".
Fox: I think we should call it... your grave!
Whedon: Ah, curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal!
Fox: Ha ha HA! Mine is an evil laugh...now die!
