Phishing attack on BZ WBK clients

Lost24

In many people's mailboxes, also ours, appeared false mails with the demand to verify the BZ WBK account access, It can be achieved  by clicking the link. The link redirects us to a fake website, very similar to the official BZWBK24 logging website. Thanks to the fake website, swindlers want to extort our logging data to the bank account. That way they receive the easy access to perform unauthorized operations on the account of bank client. 


It is another phishing attack on clients of this bank. The swindlers could do this easily because money transfers by Przelew24 did not require confirmation with text password. After this  incident, the bank restored this precaution. 


On account of the increase of threats connected with sending false e-mails, BZ WBK bank sends to its own clients special notices. More information on the blog of the bank. 


Phishing attacks are more and more frequent, pay attention to where we type our personal  log-ons.
