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


  • WAMU never send their users emails requesting personal details in this way.


  • The REAL URL of the spoof website is disguised as "http://treasury-045470008.wamu.com/ibswamu/ cmserver/base/default/do.cfm".


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