Beware that fraudsters are once again trying to deceptively pursuade online clients of the online banking processor NETeller to reveal their account details on a bogus NETeller website.

Watch-out for an e-mail claiming to be from NETeller that says:

Quote:

Dear Customer,

According to our registries, we have recently detected that your account has been accessed from different IP addresses. This could be happening because your computer’s IP address is dynamic and varies constantly, or because you have used more than one computer to access your account.

NETeller users are advised to disregard this e-mail and to definitely avoid clicking on the link it contains. The URL is cloaked and the unsuspecting will be directed to a fake NETeller site which tries to get account details for potential misuse.
