In these messages we are asked to emergency access online banking account to update various data or ironically, to make certain changes to security. In reality, the link that is sent in messages from the email sent to a fake web page. A website that copies mostly real bank website.

As a first measure of protection is increased attention when we receive such a message. Be careful of what address was sent to see the source of the message and especially to check the link that we click. Link that takes us on the bank's website.
Below is a concrete example of e-mail phishing, in which customers are targeted OTP Bank Romania.
It receives a message with the following content:
The message is formulated well enough to lead someone into error, and header logo OTP Bank adds confidence to those who are not very good at reading a message received by e-mail.
The suspicious parts appear only when we read the top of the correspondence, where the "reply" address is written "notificare@sarvayoga.org". It is unlikely that a bank will use an e-mail domain name that has nothing to do with the bank's name or the domain name of the bank's official website. sarvayoga.org It should start first awaken suspicion that this message is not what it seems.
If open source complete message, we can identify the server on which it was sent.

I went on the link indicated in the e-mail out of pure curiosity. Knowing that most likely will be a web page that my confidential data is required, I wanted to see imagination and the criminals were able to do.
Below is a screenshot of the web page I was redirected from the message:
It is a web page identical to "otpdirekt.ro", One of the official internet banking pages of OTP, only that the above address, the URL, does not belong to the bank. pcitaliasrl.itIt is a domain name that is made a clone of page OTP, and if you enter personal information here definitely be future damage.
How do we distinguish between a real website of a bank and a fake one, used for online fraud?
It is very simple. All web pages of banks and those that require confidential data must be accompanied by a certificate SSL.
The presence of this certificate can be easily seen in the web address bar (URL). In the example above, even if the fake page uses a certificate SSL (has the padlock in front of the web address), it is not registered by OTP Bank.
The real page of the bank will display a certificate at the web address SSL valid, written in green, showing the full name of the bank.
By following these safety features, we can easily avoid becoming a victim of an online scam.
Targeted phishing attacks in time are particularly big banks that have a large number of customers that greatly promotes its online services. FRG, BCR, Raiffeisen Bank, Banca Transilvania, etc.
