Wells Fargo Phishing Alert

A new phishing scam targeting Wells Fargo customers is just hitting inboxes. The e-mail is titled "Update your Wells Fargo Account" and contains a link to http://www.wellsfargo.com.update.fr.nf. If you follow that link, you will be redirected to www.accent.dp.ua.

The site looks like this in Firefox:



If you receive e-mail from your bank, never click on links within the e-mail or call phone numbers in the e-mail. Instead, use independent means to lookup the phone number or navigate to the website. Never enter your social security number. And if something looks at all suspicious, don't do fill out any forms.
