FNB warns customers to beware of bogus email
First National Bank (FNB) has established that a fraudulent email is in circulation, attempting to collect customers' Internet Banking details via a 'spoof' website.
FNB discovered the email scam today, 17 May, and the initial investigation shows that the website is hosted outside of South Africa. The bank is doing everything in its power to shut the website down as soon as possible.
FNB encourages its customers to beware of email scams, and to be alert to the following security precautions:
If you are not sure about the origin of an email received from FNB, rather call the FNB Internet Banking Helpline number provided in that email to verify its origin.
Never reply to an email requesting personal information such as your user ID and/or password.
Instead of following the hyperlink from an email, rather type in the url, (eg.
http://www.fnb.co.za) which will take you directly to the website you wish to visit.
Ensure that the website address is prefixed with https and not just http. A picture of a padlock should appear on the bottom right hand of the browser page, which means it is a secure website.
Verify that you are visiting a secure website by checking the security certificate.
Check the email for grammatically correct language, as the lack of this is often an indicator of a fraudulent email.
Check to see that the email is signed by a company official.
"The FNB website,
http://www.fnb.co.za, and in particular FNB Internet Banking remains secure and our customers can rest assured that their online security is our top priority", says Roland le Sueur, Head of FNB Internet Banking.
