Why does that sound like something other than English?

Due to our new verification protocol, and for proper owner identification. We have issue new sort code for your account, please check it through your Ulster bank message center, Log in to your message center:

Ouch! Punctuation and grammar are obviously not this person’s forte!

    Saw this, went to UB website, looked for security info, and boy do they keep info on phishing low-key.
    Founf it alright in the footer, but only afte using their search facility which gave me complete crap for ‘security’.
    Sent them a mail to the phishing address. No response (what’s the bet that their anitspam filtered the mail?).
