Another phishing email with the pretence that an account has been subject to unathorised attempts to gain access. There's a discrepancy between the title, suggesting that there have been transactions and the content, saying that there have been logon attempts. I suppose the idea being the title gets the reader's attention in the hope that they just quickly click the link to continue.
That link would actually take you not to the Yorkshire Bank's own system, but to http://www.hunterxhunter.cl/verify/login.html instead. hunterxhunter.cl have already appeared on these pages, on 1st July.
Here's the content of the email...
Unauthorized Transactions on your Internet Banking
Dear Valued Customer,
Our utmost concern is the security of our online banking users. In this effect,
we do proper verification on all transactions done on our secured online banking servers.
Several attempts to log on to your account were detected on our secured servers and as a matter of our improved online banking security measures, We have decided to temporarily suspend your online banking access.
You will not be able to access your online account unless you re-activate your online access but in order to do so, you will have to confirm your details by Logging on to your account to complete the verification process set out for you before we can retrieve your online access.
Please, Log on through our secure reference: Click Here
We are indeed sorry for the inconveniencies we have caused you, but also remember that as a Ybonline Bank customer, your security remains our greatest priority.
Sincerely,
David Thorburn
Security Department
