Your Health Care Provider, Pfishing perhaps?

[Nicholas D. Richards]

I have received an e-mail from:

"Your Health Care Provider" <NoR...@YourHealthCareProvider.co.uk>

telling me that "Your results are now available. A follow up is not
required."

Anyone any idea where this is coming from?

1. Your healthcare provider? :-)
2. Can't see how it is phishing unless there is a link to click on or
similar?
3. Maybe someone isn't telling you something?
4. Try googling the email address with the word 'scam' also in the
search bar...

The NHS app *does* use that email address, not proof that what you're
received is genuine of course ...

First answer from Google, Swallowfield Medical Practice has this
message on their page:



Your Healthcare Provider Email

Emails are currently being sent out from ‘Your Healthcare Provider’
for registering for online services – please keep an eye on your
inbox/junk/spam boxes



I imagine if you might have been expecting appointments or test
results from your healthcare provider that they might have a similar
message on their website too. If they don't, or you weren't, is it
possible that the message was intended for somebody else[1]?

Well, there's an amusing evening ahead for you. Cross-referencing all
those services from which you might have been expected to be expecting
communication and working out which ones are using that form of
delivery.

Me? I've got a no-knead, long-ferment loaf cooling down in the kitchen

I had a letter recently for an echo cardiogram appointment. Neither on
headed paper nor printed with a letter template with the address,
which meant that I didn't know which hospital I was supposed to go to
(choice of two). I rang up and they sent me a replacement letter,
after telling me which hospital, but it still wasn't on headed paper
nor printed with a letter template with the address.

Enjoy, I have the remains of one half of yesterdays barm cakes in the
bread bin and the other half in the freezer. SWMBO will not let me fill
them with chips :(

I must admit, though I have been cooking my own bread for nigh forty
years, I have never heard of no-knead bread, or have I misunderstood
'no-knead'.

Perhaps a template designed for headed paper, but there isn't any
in the home of the person printing the letter for you, that's all in the
office they don't go into these days.

Nope. You've got it. Mine is a fake sourdough because it doesn't
contain any -erme- sourdough. Flour, water, salt and a tiny amount of
yeast[1]. Mix them all up and put them in a comfortably warm place and
let it do its own thing in a sealed plastic bag for 18 - 36 hours -
depending on how comfortably warm the comfortably warm place is.

When you come back to it the next day you should have a bubbling mass
of dough. Bake it in an excruciatingly hot oven inside a pre-heated,
lidded container. My son uses a cast-iron Dutch Oven, I use an
enamelled metal casserole. The lid keeps the steam in and makes the
crust crusty. Try not to disturb the bubbling mass too much and keep
any re-shaping before baking to an absolute minimum.

Bake it at that excruciatingly hot temperature for 15mts then turn it
down to about 180 for another 15mts. Then turn it out of the tin and
bake it on the oven rails for another 15+ minutes at about 140 until
it passes your test for being "done."

Nick
[1]This is one recipe I do by proportions rather than weight. Three
units[2] strong white flour to 1 unit of warm water with a sensible
amount of salt + about 1/4 teaspoon of yeast regardless of how big the
loaf is going to be. In 24hrs that yeast is going to have buggered off
and got busy in all corners of the dough.

They printed the letter in the cardiothoracic reception, which is also
their admin office.

The person I know who is employed to set up appointments and send such
letters has to occasionally go into her office to do all the printing
there, as the IT department will not allow her to use her home printer
or print via her remote log on. They were sniffy enough about giving her
a way to log on from home.

If they didn't provide her with a machine to use at home then I can
understand not wanting to allow private machines on the corporate network
(I wouldn't). I can't understand not giving people the tools they need to
do their wbos - OK in the first few weeks chaos was to be expected but it's
been over a year now.

It's up to you of course, but cutting the bread sounds like a much
better idea.

I was sent to the shop for a sliced loaf once. They took a whole loaf,
put it through the bacon-slicer & wrapped it up.

Or the lady bacon slicer who sat down on her work.

I first heard that one from a lady who had badly cut her hand on a bacon
slicer. Nasty dangerous devices, fast spinning disc blade, difficult to
clean or sharpen the blade without some risk.

I once spent time in a place which used a similar device for cutting
bread rolls in (almost) half.
The fast spinning blade _was_ housed inside a metal chute, but far too
often the thing would jam up & people would poke their fingers inside to
dislodge the stuck roll.

What? Switch the thing off first? Surely you joke.
