ABSA is a South African bank, which is currently a subsidiary of Barclays Bank: https://www.absa.co.za

UCount is a rewards scheme operated by Standard Bank (of South Africa): https://ucount.standardbank.co.za/personal/

And avios.com has a South African scheme, so all of this is consistent with an emailing glitch rather than anything weirder or more sinister.
