Clicking on the link in the email message will take the potential victims to a fake Tesco Bank website, which will ask them for their username, password, personal and financial information.

If the requested information is entered, it will be sent to the cybercriminals behind the scam. Once they have the information, they will use it to hijack the victims' accounts, steal their money and use the accounts for fraudulent purposes.

If you have already followed the instructions in the email message and have entered your information on the fake website, please change your Tesco Bamk password immediately and contact them.

To avoid getting tricked by these phishing scams, never click on a link in an email message to sign into your account. Always go to your bank's website directly and sign into your account from there.

Note: Some of the names, addresses, email addresses and telephone numbers in email samples on this website may have been impersonated.
