-
Email asks you to confirm/update/verify your account data at NCUA by visiting the given link. You will be taken to a spoof website where your details will be captured for the phishers.
- NCUA never send their users emails requesting personal details in this way.
-
The REAL URL of the spoof website is disguised as "https://www.ncua.gov/my_account/ FCUAdministration/ActivateFCU.asp".
-
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.
-
The REAL URL of the spoof website looks nothing like the actual NCUA URL.

Dear NCUA Member,
You have recently updated your Credit Union account according to our standard security procedures. Unfortunately the update procedure failed because some of the information you provided was incorrect. We have reason to believe that your account was accessed by a third party. Because protecting the security of your account is our primary concern, we have limited access to sensitive NCUA account features.
Please understand that we cannot respond to individual messages through this email address. It is not secure and should not be used for credit card account related questions.
Please take 5-10 minutes out of your online experience and update your personal records again.
To update your Credit Union, please follow the link below:
https://www.ncua.gov/my_account/FCUAdministration/ActivateFCU.asp
However, failure to update your records will result in account suspension.
Accounts Management as outlined in our User Agreement, NCUA will periodically send you information about site changes and enhancements.
Thank you,
National Credit Union Administration Security Department.
