PHISH WARNING
Be warned there is a phish mail going round claiming to be from the Citizens Bank.
it is not, it is in fact a phish designed to steal the passcodes of those who click on the link.
How do I know it is a phish?
Simple:
1 No reputable bank will ever send you a mail asking you to click through on a link to verify your passcodes
2 No reputable bank would ever write to a customer without using their name in the "Dear.." part
3 I am not a customer of Citizens Bank
Dear Citizens Bank customer,
We recently reviewed your account, and suspect that your Citizens Online Banking account may have been accessed by an unauthorized third party.
Protecting the security of your account and of the S&T Bank network is our primary concern. Therefore, as a preventative measure, we have temporarily limited access to sensitive account features.
To restore your account access , please take the following steps to ensure that your account has not been compromised:
1. Login to Citizens Online Banking account. In case you are not enrolled yet for Internet Banking, you will have to use your Social Security Number as both your Personal ID and Password and fill in the required information, including your name and account number.
2. Review your recent account history for any unauthorized withdrawals or deposits, and check your account profile to make sure no changes have been made. If any unauthorized activity has taken place on your account, report to S&T Bank staff immediately.
