happened again today but i didnt accept. now you can sort of see why i went through with it.
the first page describes adjusting account settings and adding a temporary recipient then it takes you onto this page

Only thing I do is pay my credit card online. By far the easiest way to do it.

I find it even more annoying when i think about what John has said. If these idiots bothered to get hold of someone who actually understood the English language, and get them to phrase their scams....their profits would go through the roof i think.

Have you forwarded these images to Lloyds atall?
I'm sure they'd be interested to see a scam operating from within their own system...

I would STOP using Internet Banking on your computer and get it checked for malware ASAP! 
Assuming that Lloyds TSB don't have shit spelling on their website, I would suggest that your system is somehow redirecting requests to your IB to a fake website.
Just to satisfy my curiousity, can you paste the contents of your HOSTS file in here? Just wondering if there's something in there that might be doing the redirection.
Go to Start, Run and type in notepad %windir%\System32\drivers\etc\hosts

That's not within their system.

Also - that recipient sort code isn't valid (although would be a Barclays account if it was).
