The only thing that crops up on Google is that some got emptied on 19th October 2006 by a system error.

There is an email going round telling people to click on a link and confirm their bank details. This is NOT a legitimate email.
I have informed Halifax but they say there is nothing they can do about it and whilst they say they have put a notice on their website about this (I can't find it) they refuse to email their online customers to warn them.

I'm not with the Halifax, but it seems funny that I have had 2 emails like this and so have others, but not from any other bank. I don't think Halifax is very secure.
