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 looks nothing like the actual NCUA URL.
