Cimb bank phishing emails
While checking my email I found some very interesting emails that had the subject “URGENT : Your account has been locked!?”. Curiously I open the email and found the email seem like originated from CIMB bank and everything seem like legitimate. But after checking the email header, it reveal that this was one of those sinister phishing emails !
