Phishing scams are nothing new. In fact, if you’re a PayPal user or any online banking user, you’re already receiving tons of fake emails that appear to be legitimate messages sent by PayPal or banks. If you’re a Maybank2u user, now you have that same problem as well.
There are tons of people fall into this scam trap and lost a lot money. As a online user we must be alert and read carefully on each emails that comes to our inbox. NEVER CLICK on LINK THOUGH EMAIL ASKING FOR ACCOUNT INFORMATION. Bank never request our info though email, if you found any suspecting email, delete it or confirm it by call the bank direct.
If you’re not sure how to recognize a phishing scam, let me give you an example.
You will get an email that appears as if it was sent from Maybank themselves. Even the email address it was sent from may appear to be from Maybank themselves.
But if you put your mouse over the link in the email, you can see exactly what website it takes you to – which of course will not be the Maybank website. Do not click on the link, and if you did, do not enter any information or try to login to the site you were taken too.
Same thing applies for phishing emails related to other banks, it’s better ignore these emails altogether and type in the bank website directly in your browser.
