RHB BANK Online Banking PHISHING!

Today i got 3 emails with the same content from RHB BANK, take a look at the snapshot.

Email Title as :

1) Client's Data Confirmation

2) RHB Bank - Security issues. - Sat, 06 Jan 2007 10:53:42 -0800

3) RHB Bank - alert [Sat, 06 Jan 2007 07:51:20 -0800]




Someone who try to use RHB Bank to send the false information to mislead the customer to login from that URL. Although it said: Sender from : RHB Bank [service-id891284464525079ib@rhbbank.com.my]

But.........it is FAKE!

In addition, as it said, click the following link http://www.rhbbank.com.my/procedureid0731104377/client.shtm


If you click on it, it will lead you to the page

http://www.rhbbank.com.my.procedureid4516105.toprworld.biz/client.shtm

This url is isn't same as above...LOOK CAREFULLY, the bottom url stard with www.rhbbank.com.my and postfix "toprworld.biz" behind it. It means tat page is belonged to toprworld.biz rather than rhbbank.com.my.


If you click on it, it will lead you to a page which has the EXTACT same interface Look and feel

Let's take a look at real one, only small differences...Look at the URL address, it is totally different url.

Although i don't have Bank account in RHB bank, it still received this. If you know any of your family and friend using online banking, please tell them, NEVER trust on any incoming email that tell you required to do confirmation on client profile, no matter it is from RHB, or Maybank, WHATEVER bank.....I believe our BANKING industry won't do things so simple....They will ask you PURPOSELY go to your own branch to validate your profile rather send an email to make your life simple.
Please pass this message on, NEVER click on any link in your email to ask you VALIDATE your bank account!
