Phishing e-mail targets Honolulu credit union members
Advertiser Staff
Members of Honolulu Federal Credit Union are the latest targets of a so-called "phishing" e-mail that tries to trick people into disclosing their credit or ATM card information.
The e-mail offers $100 to people filling out a five-question survey and includes a link to a bogus Web site designed to look like its operated by Honolulu Federal Credit Union. Once at the bogus site people are asked to give their e-mail address, user ID and password in addition to information that would allow thieves to use their credit, debit or ATM card accounts.
