Fraudulent Email Alert from Bank of Ireland

category national | miscellaneous | news report author Saturday March 19, 2005 00:25author by boi

Bank of Ireland wishes to alert its customers to ignore any emails they may have received from a source purporting to be Bank of Ireland or www.365online.com.

The Bank has discovered that a number of our customers and non-customers have received emails today directing them to a website posing as its personal banking online service, www.365online.com. The email directs the recipient to a website where they are asked to input personal banking information.

Should any customer have innocently responded to one of these emails they should contact Bank of Ireland immediately at 1890 365 365 or from outside ROI at +353 1 4622365.

Bank Of Ireland are so concerned by this that they announce it late on Friday evening, and there is nobody answering on the helpline, it's just the everyday automaton that you get, contrary to their websites claims.
