Email asks you to confirm/update/verify your account data at Wachovia by visiting the given link. You will be taken to a spoof website where your details will be captured for the phishers.
- Wachovia never send their users emails requesting personal details in this way.
-
The REAL URL of the spoof website is disguised as "https://www.wachovia.com/ cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_login-run".
-
The REAL URL of the spoof website looks nothing like the actual Wachovia URL.
