Watch out for false e-mail  messages- the Pekao S.A. bank warns 


After the phishing attack on WZBK Bank clients- https://lost24.pl/post/52/atak-phishingowy-na-klientow-bz-wbk , cybercriminals decided to impersonate PEKAO S.A. bank. 


PEKAO S.A Bank. warns against false e-mail messages which could make their way to the mailboxes of their clients. 


The messages contain information about the offer connected with issuing the cash credit. There is a attachment in the form of .doc file containing a schedule of credit repayments. 


Messages seem to give impression of being authentic and encourage the recipient to open the attachment containing malicious software. Thanks to it, the third party will be able to follow our actions. 


If we opened the attachment PEKAO S.A. bank warns not to log on to your Pekao24 service via infected computer or phone. If we logged on, as soon as possible change the password of the service from other device or enable blocking of the Pekao24 service. 


We can find more information along with example messages on the bank website in the safety bookmark.
