This email came with an attached web page called 'Barclays - Login Form.htm' and is an attempt at getting you to set up PINsentry and pass all your personal details over at the same time. IT IS NOT FROM BARCLAYS!!
DO NOT ever click links in your email that ask you to go to your bank / building society / paypal account. ALWAYS type the address to your Bank into your browser yourself to be sure you are in a genuine page and ALWAYS connect through a secure connection (https://www............)
