Egg Online Banking

The email claiming to be from Egg Online Banking and instructing you to update your account information to avoid your account becoming restricted 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 Egg Online Banking directly and explain the e-mail you received. If you give out any personal information, contact Egg Online Banking 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 soliciations that appear to be phishing e-mails are set forth throughout this website and below:
