Comments:
  • Email asks you to confirm/update/verify your account data at Barclays by visiting the given link. You will be taken to a spoof website where your details will be captured for the phishers.


  • Barclays never send their users emails requesting personal details in this way.


  • The REAL URL of the spoof website is disguised as "https://www.barclays.co.uk/ cgi-bin/ias/GotoReset".


  • The REAL URL of the spoof website has been chosen to look very similar to the actual Barclays URL. Do not be fooled!
