Suspicious Email

[cisco3181]

Hi All,

I have received this email from BEU Cardiff <BEU.Cardiff@ukba.gsi.gov.uk> and I am not sure if this is a genuine email or a spam. Reason for suspicion is that the location of my appointment is wrong.

Email is like this -

Subject: Your Visa Appointment On Friday 26th July 2013 at Cardiff PEO

Dear Customer,



Thank you for booking your appointment with the Cardiff PEO.



Please can you respond to this e-mail within the next 72 hours to confirm you are attending your appointment and tell us the following information:

4. What type of Visa application you are applying for

6. Full names and date of birth of any dependants



Unfortunately due to high levels of demand for this service, failure to respond within 72 hours could result in the cancellation of your appointment.
