Gone Phishing

| | Comments (0)

If you have a checking account this post is for you. No, I'm not asking for donations (although the thought has crossed my mind!). Instead I wanted to put some information out there on something that really hasn't been talked about very much lately. Phishing scams. If you're not familiar with the term "phishing", it refers to a particular type of email scam. As with fishing, "phishing" involves bait that entices you to "bite." If you've ever received an email from your bank or some other bank or online retailer asking you to confirm your account information then you have seen a phishing email. Phishing scams are mass emails that look like a legitimate email from a bank or online retailer asking you to confirm your account information. They usually try to scare you into providing this information by saying that your account has been compromised or there is some sort of problem with your account. Phishing scams have become very successful because the emails look like they come from your bank. The images are the same, the message sounds sincere and professional, and you would want your bank to contact you if they thought there was something going on with your account right? That's right! The only problem is there is not a bank in the country who uses email as a means of collecting your account information. Why?
