You Have 1 New Secure Message – Halifax Phishing Email

Filed under: Phishing — Tags: , , — admin @ 8:58 am

Today, and for the 2nd time this week, there is another phishing email purporting to be from the Halifax bank. The link, as usual, does NOT take you to the Halifax website but instead to the scammers site (http://www.goobertestsite.net/includes/fax/formslogin.htm).

DO NOT FOLLOW THIS LINK AND DO NOT FILL IN YOUR PERSONAL DETAILS.

For your information the body of the email is as follows:

~~~

Dear Online Account Holder,

Access To Your Account Is Currently Unavailable .

Please click the link below to restore your account access.
RESTORE YOUR ACCOUNT ACCESS .

Thank you.
Customer Service
(c) Halifax Online Banking
