Today I receive an email supposedly from Zenith bank and since it looked authentic enough, I clicked on the link to confirm my account. But what made me a bit suspicious about the landing page was that it took me a to a form that requested I enter my yahoo email and password. Now since one is not meant to enter his email password elsewhere, even if it is on the Zenith bank website, I became suspicious that it could actually be a scam mail. So I had to do a check on some features of the email

- The landing page was at http://ibank.zenithbank.com.grahamreciclaje.com/internetbanking/zenith/ which is not a zenith bank domain which is actually zenithbank.com
- The actual email address of the sender was zenithdirect@knockbrackenfuels.com even though they fraudulently used zenithdirect@zenithbank.com as the name

Those who are behind this email scam are probably busy stealing banking and personal details of people. If you are into internet banking services with your bank, always try to confirm first where the email is from as well as the website it links to first before proceeding to do anything with it.
