There’s an email purporting to be from a third party security company for online banking companies. The email claims that due to multiple password failures, recipients need to re-confirm their account information. If the recipients click on the link, it will take them to a phishing site.

If you click on the link, it looks as though it’s going to a local computer with the IP address of 98.195.193.92.
