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

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