Got this today at my home address. Is it legit? as in sent by a real company? If so why are they sending out customers credit card info? at least they blocked the pin number...



Dear ANZ Internet banking client,

We encountered a billing error when attempting to renew your ANZ New Zealand
online banking services. This type of error usually indicates that either the
credit card you have on file has expired or that the billing address we have
is not current.

Here is the information from our database:

Address:
6 Fernaig St.
Papakura
Auckland

Online banking:
Customer Registration Number: XXXXXXX << account number sent
Password: 9215

Credit Card:
Card Type: VISA
Card Number: XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX << real number sent
Card Expire: 12/2005
Card PIN: **** (we have censored this information for security reasons)

Please take a moment to update your credit card information by clicking here Click here and submitting your information.

Please note that we will attempt to renew your services 5 (five) days from
today. If we are still unable to charge your credit card at that time your
service will be terminated.

Sincerely,

ANZ New Zealand Billing Department.
Cnr Queen & Victoria St

I'm sure it's a scam! Never, ever give any financial info, SSN, etc. over the net from an e-mail that says "click here" to update your records.

Nah, its ligit. ANZ is this giant bank in New Zealand where people put lots of money together. If you click there and give them your info, the'll be able to send you 1 million dollars and a new grand mother. Heck, they'd be able to give you the goose that lays golden eggs and a talking harp as well. Try it and let us know what else they gave you. 😉
