I received this strange e-mail from stream@virginmedia.co.uk
Activation add to bill
MR VM-SVOD-01 (My surname). 31. (My full name then my first name again) then my account number
anyone have any idea what it is?
I called customer support and they suggested it was spam/phishing.
regards

I got it as well, I replied to it so see what happened and got an auto email:
vmHello,

which is a dead link. This whole thing is very odd. They also spelled my name wrong, but got my account number correct.
