    Chase Cc-alert Regarding Fraudulent E-mail

    Here's another Phishing attempt againts Chase Credit Card's Customers.

    Fraudulent Screen and Emails

    Recently our customers reported receiving a fraudulent screen attempting to trick them to provide personal information. Other customers have reported receiving fraudulent emails.

    Fraudulent Screen

    A few of our customers have reported seeing a screen similar to the one below when they log into Chase Online.This screen is a result of a Trojan horse program (Download.Ject, which is also known as JS.Scob.Trojan, Scob, and JS.Toofeer) which places code on your PC in order to obtain information about your accounts. This information can be used to perpetrate identity theft or compromise your existing accounts at Chase or elsewhere. Please do not enter any information onto this screen. Please notify Chase immediately at one of the numbers below.





    Fraudulent Emails

    These e-mails either contain a virus as an attachment, request personal information, or direct the recipient to a site, which appears authentic but is an unauthorized counterfeit website. If this information is submitted, it can then be used to perpetrate Identity Theft or compromise existing accounts at Chase or elsewhere.

    I've been seeing these spammed to my domain for the last couple of weeks. Before that was usbank and today they started with wells fargo.

    No MSM- I have not done that. I'm pretty sure CHASE is already a step ahead of me on passing this information over. This was provided by CHASE itself to their customers. I'm just passing it along to those who might have not read it yet. Its easy to miss these warnings from them because they're blended in with all the other information on the site.
