Phishing!

Hi a quick word in your shell Like!!

Phishing emails are on the loose in the guise of a Bank security problem, these banks include Natwest, Nationwide and Halifax. They warn of a third party access or security problem. DO NOT Answer these questions unless you are truly positive they are from your bank!
What is Phishing and Pharming?
Phishing attacks use both social engineering and technical subterfuge to steal consumers' personal identity data and financial account credentials. Social-engineering schemes use 'spoofed' e-mails to lead consumers to counterfeit websites designed to trick recipients into divulging financial data such as credit card numbers, account usernames, passwords and social security numbers. Hijacking brand names of banks, e-retailers and credit card companies, phishers often convince recipients to respond. Technical subterfuge schemes plant crimeware onto PCs to steal credentials directly, often using Trojan keylogger spyware. Pharming crimeware misdirects users to fraudulent sites or proxy servers, typically through DNS hijacking or poisoning.
I have had Halifax,Natwest & Nationwide in my mail box recently so be Alert dont let them into your PC ! Report them whenever you can!
See ya again soon Chris.....................................
