You're probably already a goner just by clicking on the link. I've tried clicking links like this before, just clicking it ONLY, and later, all sorts of shit started happening. For one, my antivirus died! Had to reinstall the anti virus again.

Is a scam. these guy impersonate ebay, paypal, citibank and other financial potrals.

Well, I don't even believe phone call. Once citibank called me up askng me to update my address n so on. I refuse to give the operater my info. Reason being, bank should have the info and should not ask me over the phone.
what I do next, I told the operator i will personally call up citibank, true enough their database miss out my address and I gave them over the phone.
But at least I am the one call to their hotline and is confirm not scam.... hehe!

i got from CitiBank and HSBC.. scam.
forward the email to respective Bank, but no reply from them. Looks like they don't care.

 

[devil]

rule of fthumb, whenever u receive electronic / phone asking for your user name or password or any personal iniformation .... Don't give .. if not sure, call the portal personally to verify it ..

 

[satria_95]

devil,
If I change address, I will take the initiative to update all the banks, telco, hand phone service providers, etc. and let them know the new address, when I will be at the new address and such. I won't bother to update them via phone becauase their questions for verification is damn useless. Always ask ic number la, mother's name la, etc. Anybody who knows those simple details can easily pass off as me.

When it comes to issues like this, do it on letter to officialise it and keep a copy of the letter. This is so that if they never do anything about it and something happens, you have a copy of the letter with you.
