Paul Henthorne wrote on Twitter: 'The same fonts, same logos . . . it's one of the best phishing emails I've seen.'

Lily Green, of autoswitching service Look After My Bills, says: 'There are clues to show it's a fake.

A British Gas spokesman says: 'If customers are concerned about an email, forward it to phishing@centrica.com.'
