Email asks you to confirm/update/verify your account data at Co-operative Bank by visiting the given link. You will be taken to a spoof website where your details will be captured for the phishers.
- Co-operative Bank never send their users emails requesting personal details in this way.
-
The REAL URL of the spoof website is disguised as "https://welcome26.co-operativebank.co. uk/CBIBSWeb/start.do&_trksid=m37".
-
The REAL URL of the spoof website looks nothing like the actual Co-operative Bank URL.
