Comments:
  • Email asks you to confirm/update/verify your account data at Halifax Bank by visiting the given link. You will be taken to a spoof website where your details will be captured for the phishers.


  • Halifax Bank never send their users emails requesting personal details in this way.


  • The spoof website this email links to was not online at time of this report, but variations of the scam which link to working websites are bound to exist, so be wary! The website may have been taken down or disabled by the hosts, but quite often these websites are hosted on the personal computer of the phishers, so may only be online at certain times.

Dear Customer,

Please note that starting from February 24,
2012 we will be introducing new online
banking
authentication procedures in order to
protect the private information of all online
banking users.

You are required to confirm your online
banking details with us as you will not be
able to
have access to your accounts until this has
been done.

As you're already registered for online
banking all you need to do is to confirm
your online banking details...
