The email claiming to be from Downey Savings and asking you to re-confirm account information to avoid an account suspension appears to be a phishing scam. Phishing e-mails are e-mails from scam artists who use official looking webpages designed to trick you into believing they are from a corporate website that you have an account with. Once you are at the site, they will ask you to provide or verify personal information such as bank account information, credit card information, social security information and password information. If you get such an e-mail, you should delete it and do not provide any of the requested information. However, if you are not convinced that you have a fraudulent e-mail, please contact Downey Savings directly and explain the e-mail you received. If you give out any personal information, contact Downey Savings immediately and depending on what information you gave out, it may be wise to take measures to protect against identity theft (e.g. contact credit agencies, close accounts, cleanse computer). Many e-mail solicitations that appear to be phishing e-mails are set forth throughout this website and below:
Dear Downey Savings Customer, We recently have determined that different computers have logged onto your Online Banking account, and multiple password failures were present before the logons. We now need you to re-confirm your account information to us. If this is not completed by May 14, 2007, we will be forced to suspend your account indefinitely, as it may have been used for fraudulent purposes. We thank you for your cooperation in this manner. To confirm your Online Banking records click on the following link: http://www.security-downeysavings.com/ASP/HB/ Thank you for your patience in this matter. Downey Savings Customer Service Please do not reply to this e-mail as this is only a notification. Mail sent to this address cannot be answered. |
