^ That’s not a big deal. Read up SMTP. I guess these guys still use it.
Open the form
In user id and password and whatever fields present enter the worst swears you know…M@xxxxxx, Bxxxxx
And send it
I do that whenever such phishing mails i receive from ICICI.

Nice idea. If the bank were to create honeypot ids, then it would be awesome.

The first word of the mail itself confirms its a Phishing mail, “Attention!!! ” is mostly used heading in those Niegerian Scam Mails
AND how did people miss the Camel Case!! Reminds me of someone from this forum
