Email asks you to confirm/update/verify your account data at Wells Fargo by visiting the given link. You will be taken to a spoof website where your details will be captured for the phishers.
- Wells Fargo never send their users emails requesting personal details in this way.
-
The REAL URL of the spoof website is disguised as "https://online.wellsfargo.com/signon?LOB=CONS".
-
The REAL URL of the spoof website looks nothing like the actual Wells Fargo URL.

"Thanks For Using Wells Fargo Banking Online"
|
Dear WellsFargo Customers :
Wells Fargo is constantly working to increase security for all Online Banking users. To ensure the integrity of our online payment system, we periodically review accounts.Your account might be place on restricted status. Restricted accounts continue to receive payments, but they are limited in their ability to send or withdraw funds.
To lift up this restriction, you need to login into your account (with your username or SSN and your password), then you have to complete our verification process. You must confirm your credit card details and your billing information as well. To initiate the billing update confirmation process, please follow the link bellow and fill in the necessary fields :
https://online.wellsfargo.com/signon? LOB=CONS
All restricted accounts have their billing information unconfirmed, meaning that you may no longer send money from your account until you have updated your billing information on file.
Thanks For Using Wells Fargo Banking Online
