Error Detected in Your Account Information (3) – Halifax Phishing Email

Filed under: Phishing — Tags: , , — admin @ 11:07 am

Having gone a couple of quiet weeks on the Halifax Bank phishing emails, today one turned up in my inbox. Thankfully, due to the incompetence of this scammer, they have failed to make the link clickable to the webpage they have created. However, Halifax need to still get on an shut it down ASAP.
