Beware of Phishing

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

with an attachment with extension pdf.html which when clicked opens the below site

ICICI Bank Fake URL

Which looks to be an exact replica of ICICI bank login page, it even behaves as if it is able to login if you even some non existing user name /pwd.

Beware of such emails.
 
Yeah...one more chance to give them BMC gaalis in user id and password :D

LOL I entered swear words in user id and password and still it SORT OF logged me in.

Guys please beware about all this as these phishing people seem to have invested a lot of to recreate exact replicas.

After login it asks you details like transaction password, debit card details including CVV and validity and then on next page it asks for the GRID details of debit card, all numbers.

How do we notify ICICI about this URL ?
 
IE 9 is supersmart,

It immediately asked me with notification below address bar saying do you intend to visit delorama.com site

cheers to MS and its work.

site is exact replica of icici site.
 
yes this site is quite difficult to spot the scam, at a casual look.

I tried providing a date birth as 35-02-2011 it even accepted it :eek:hyeah:, and proceeded to display a screen to provide debit card info.

Firefox , chrome should have something similar. Have stopped using IE :ashamed: .
 
I am updated with latest verion of firefox but still no luck in catching it as scam.

but IE by default detected it.and it was not just first time i opened the page.everytime i opened tab,it detected sca and alerted me each and everytime.
 
Was the from address from an icicibank.com domain registered email address? and anyways thats the reason I dont un-install IE, microsoft keeps upto its name ;)
 
Yes the address shows @icicibank.com

From: "ICICI Bank"<otp.reg@icicibank.com>

But while viewing the entire header, found the following message. (saw this later)

-------------

Received-SPF: fail (domain of icicibank.com does not designate 216.245.218.53 as permitted sender)

-------------

Actually it was lying in my SPAM folder, I marked it as Not a Spam going by the From Field :ashamed: , but the attachment name "ICICI Bank (OTP) Enrollment form.pdf.html" made be suspicious about it.

this is what they say.

we all know icici wont do anything like phishing and all.

Its standard copy paste reply i guess.

Glad that I am not using ICICI bank or anything related to it.
 
I think ICICI will log some sort of request to the concerned authority.

Guess this would be standard response from any bank concerned and nothing specific to ICICI bank, although I may be wrong.
 
^ What can ICICI do to a site which is running on a 3rd party server which it has no control over? It is not possible for them to just shut down the site immediately after you have reported it.

They will contact the web hosting or server provider and ask them to take action which may not happen instantly.
