Hi all received this email yesterday allegedly from Santander bank.
I thought it suspicious so haven't acted on it but logged on in my usual way and there is no mention on the official site about this alleged security module but how many people will be taken in by this sort of thing..
Dear customer,
A new security method was developed by our IT engineers, which purpose is to protect online accounts from unauthorized usage and third party access.
For this new feature to be added to our online banking system our members are required to update their profile information by clicking on the following link:
Click here to go to the Secure Module
Broken Link Removed
We take online security seriously
Your online security is our priority, but we need help to keep you safe. Remember to be vigilant of your security at all times.
You are required to update your account one-time only and will take 3-5 minutes of your time, after completing the secure module correctly you can continue using your account as usual.
Please note that failure in updating your profile will result in suspending your account.
Thank you,
Santander
