Spam Email Targets Bank’s Customers
An email [shown below] purporting to be from the Bank of Butterfield has been sent out to local email addresses, claiming accounts have been temporarily locked for security reasons.
A spokesperson for the Bank said, “Butterfield advises our customers that we will NEVER ask them for personal information or account details via e-mail or use e-mail to direct them to a website to “update” or “unlock” their online access.
“If customers receive an e-mail requesting that they visit a website to update their account information or unlock their accounts, they should disregard it and delete it; it is fraudulent.”
