I tried to forward a phish to PIRT and Natwest,
but it was bounced back.
The original email showed a blank in 'from' and 'subject' fields.
Header info revealed it as a natwest phish.
The content was hidden.
The bounce-back showed full content with codes.
I was able to forward the entire bounce message to PIRT and Natwest.
As these things are queued, I'm posting the code here.
I've changed x to z as a 'just in case' security measure.

Now I am puzzled - what kind of code is this? How can this be a phish?

I changed x to z
I've seen similar code before. It's normally invisible, and is used to either launch a malware attack straight from the email, or hyperlink to a phish site. Usually, a code at the front links through, making the core info invisible to spam checkers, I assume.
In this case, the code had a bug.
As received by me, the email was blank: no header, no sender, nothing! Blank when viewed as html, that is.
I forwarded, but was bounced. I guess that was an anti-virus bounce.
I re-forwarded the bounce-back as a means to show all the code,
and to ensure all header info was available to PIRT.
I labelled this a phish, because the of the body text,
which appears before the code, and header shows from natwest.
