  10. Recent Examples An example of a phishing e-mail, disguised as an official e-mail from a (fictional) bank. The sender is attempting to trick the recipient into revealing confidential information by "confirming" it at the phisher's website. Note the misspelling of the words received and discrepancy. Also note that although the URL of the bank's webpage appears to be legitimate, the hyperlink would actually be pointed at the phisher's webpage.

When in doubt, call the institution that claims to have sent you the email. phishers typically include upsetting or exciting (but false)statements in their emails to get people to react immediately (i.e., claiming they will shut off your account) phishers typically ask for confidential information such as usernames, passwords, credit card numbers, social security numbers, etc.
  17. How to Avoid being a victim? 2. If you suspect the message might not be authentic, don't use the links within the email to get to a web page call the company on the telephone or log onto the website directly by typing their Web address in your browser. 3. Never fill out forms in email messages that ask for confidential information
  18. How to avoid being a victim? 4. Always ensure that you're using a secure website when submitting credit card or other sensitive information via your web browser check the beginning of the Web address in your browsers address bar - it should be ‘https://’ rather than just ‘http://’ look for the locked padlock icon on your browser (i.e. Internet Explorer/Mozilla)
  19. How to avoid being a victim? 5. Regularly check your bank, credit and debit card statements to ensure that all transactions are legitimate and if anything is suspicious, contact your bank and all card issuers immediately 6. Ensure that your browser and OS software is up-to-date and that latest security patches are applied
