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


  • AT&T never send their users emails requesting personal details in this way.


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

Dear AT&T User,

We are extremely sorry to inform you that, we have just found a serious bug in our system that may allow to get unauthorized access to our Admin/Members account. They may also able to change account informations of our Account holders, though they were not able to get information about our users. Only they can change information using that bug.

We have successfully located the bug and fixed that immediately. We always try all our best to keep your valuable information secure. We have checked our server log each and every line, and we assure you that there was no unauthorized access in out system.

But there is something can be happened which we have not noticed. For this reason, we need to re-update all your user's information. We do not want to take any risk that may cause more hassle to our users.

Please follow the link to login to your account and update your information.

AT&T Security team
