Email asks you to confirm/update/verify your account data at e-gold by visiting the given link. You will be taken to a spoof website where your details will be captured for the phishers.
- e-gold never send their users emails requesting personal details in this way.

The REAL URL of the spoof website has been chosen to look very similar to the actual e-gold URL. Do not be fooled!

you will have to fill in the required information, including your
current e-gold e-mail and it's password.
2. Review your recent account history for any unauthorized
withdrawals or deposits, and check your account profile to make
sure no changes have been made. If any unauthorized activity has
taken place your account, report to e-gold staff immediately.
