Over a year ago I ordered some Link-a-bord stuff online. I was very pleased with what I got.
However I am now receiving scam emails to the address that I used for this order. The latest one today was the usual thing this asking me to confirm my card details at LB. I rang LB and they confirmed that scammers have gained access to their email database. When I asked about card details they might still hold, the slightly vague answer was that only email data had been breached but their IT department has been investigating this all today. Fortunately the card I used is now out of date.
You'll have to make up your own mind on this one but I will not be ordering anything online from them again. If you have had any dealings with LB online I would suggest that you keep a very,very close watch on your bank account.

Me too - it was ages ago I used them. On the positive side, I suspect that they do not have card details - otherwise they could just use them rather than needing this scam !
