Thanks for the help folks. The email was genuine, it contained my name and BAEC number and came from a ba.com email address.

I had turned on auto conversion and it looks like I somehow set it on Avios to Nectar rather than the opposite as intended.

I don’t know why it converted the amount it did but it looks like this was my fault so I guess I’ll just have to transfer the points back and suck up the loss.

Thanks again.

Hi.just as a matter of interest why do you transfer all your avios to nectar? What am I missing?

I look at the 400k avios I have and see a potential of 3 longhaul business class flights for 2 people (with comp voucher)worth in excess of £15k. Or £2k cash if converted to avios.
