Phishing Alert: Alhambra Credit Union

Websense® Security Labs™ has received reports of a phishing attack that targets Alhambra Credit Union customers. Users receive a spoofed email message, which claims that if they take a survey to give feedback on the quality of services, they will get a $45 credit to their account. The email provides a link to a phishing site that attempts to collect personal and account information. This phishing site is hosted in the United States and was down at the time of this alert. Phishing email text: Dear Member... Alhambra Credit Union Online department kindly asks you to take part in our quick and easy 5 questions survey. In return we will credit $45.00 to your account - Just for your time! With the information collected we can decide to direct a number of changes to improve and expand our services. The information you provide us is all non-sensitive and anonymous - No part of it is handed down to any third party. It will be stored in our secure database for maximum 7 days while we process the results of this urgent survey. We kindly ask you to spare two minutes of your time and take part in our online survey.
