Today i got an email from HSBC Bank with subject ” Update Your Account Information“,when i take a look on entire email I smell something bad and gotcha! I am right a way now.Someone out there try to stole my accounts with phising method.
Honestly this thief doing good job,see details below what I have from my email.
Header email seem valid.

Email Contents look professional

But here if you take a look closely you will find more weird thing here.
When you move over your mouse on “Log on” button you will see status bar (if you enable it) like this.

And when you decided to click on “Log on” button,then you will redirected to new page where thief set it like original site.See screenshot below to find out.
Fake Site (you should see when you click on “Log on” button)

Fake address.
See the address on your browser address bar.How can be HSBC have site with this address? LOL

Valid HSBC Site
And below is valid HSBC UK site.

Valid Address
And here valid address should appear on your address bar.

So beware with this kind phising method,dont let them stealing your bank account details.
