Phishing (pronounced "fishing") refers to fraudulent communication designed to deceive consumers into divulging personal, financial or account information to enable identity theft. Phishing e-mails continue to be prevalent for individuals and companies. Spoofing well-known companies, these e-mails ask consumers to reply, or "click" a link to a fraudulent web page that will ask for personal information, such as their credit card/bank account number, Social Security number, date of birth, account password, on-line user id, and other information.
Phishing e-mails often look like legitimate correspondence that tries to create a false sense of urgency intended to provoke the recipient to take immediate action. For example, phishing e-mails frequently instruct recipients to "validate" or "update" account information or face cancellation and/or penalty. Be very cautious of any email asking you to update sensitive information particularly, if it has a generic greeting.
Always be suspicious of e-mails that do not greet you by name. While not impossible, it is more difficult and costly for phishers to associate an e-mail address with the e-mail owners name on a mass scale. Because of this, phishing e-mails most often are addressed generically like "Dear Customer."
Follow these five simple steps to protect yourself from Phishers:
1) Be suspicious of any email that does not address you by name.
2) Navigate to banking or other financial institutions web-sites by typing the URL into the address bar of your web browser instead of clicking a link in an email.
3) Ensure that you are using up-to-date personal firewalls and anti-virus software on your computer.
4) Read your bank statements, credit report, and credit card statements regularly.
5) Have the American Express website remember your User ID on your computer, so when you return your User ID will automatically entered into the Sign In box. A fraudulent website (spoof site) will not be able to display your User ID, letting you know that you are not on the genuine American Express website. Note: Do not use the Remember Me functionality on a public or shared computer, like at a public library.
1) Do not keep your passwords or login details written down or saved on your computer.
2) Do not disclose login details or passwords in response to unsolicited emails claiming to be from your bank, credit union credit card company, or social networking site.
If you suspect a phishing email, do not reply to the email and never follow any links.
