tiggerlady Posted May 3, 2009 Share Posted May 3, 2009 It seesm that the HSBC site is also a bit suspect! I read out the post about Halifax to DD as she does internet banking a lot.She went to HSBC and got a different screen up to usual.Following omleteer advice she didnt go any further and typed it into web browser,which gave her the correct welcome screen.I wonder if any other banks have been 'done'?(scuttles off to try Natwest..)

Chicken Licken Posted May 3, 2009 Share Posted May 3, 2009 phishing is when fraudsters try to get your bank details by sending dodgy links to fake websites that then harvest your log-on and password. The fraudsters can then make off with your money!! Beware!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
