New scam targets BOB customers

A new phishing attack has been launched against BOB customers. Be careful: this is a scam.
Here is an email sent this morning to many Bhutanese:


Dear Bank of Bhutan (BOB) Customer:
Your account is suspended.

-Your account profile is now outdated, you are required to update your information now. This account (s) has been suspended pending Immediate Activation Below-
(Activate  →) http://www.bob.bt/internet-banking/Valid-Activate.asp
BOB

This email was not sent by BOB. It was sent by scammers. The scammers simply want access to your account.

Clicking on the link sends you to a bogus BOB website, where you are asked to enter your BOB bank details. The website looks as follows. Note the website address: bob2013bhutan.com - this is not BOB's website (www.bob.bt). Do not enter your bank details.

Kindly share this post with your friends.
