I tried to find out their email address but on all their official sites they have online feedback forms. No email address provided. I managed to get one email address i.e. customer.care@icicibank.com, but not sure if this is authentical.

Any idea?

Rameshjeee · 08-20-09, 09:28 PM

Do the following:

Go to ICICI Bank | Personal Banking | NRI Banking | Corporate Banking | Business Banking
Click on Personal under Login
Click on "Report a suspicious e-mail." link under the login button.
Enter the required details & click on Submit.

Refer the below screenshot for your help:

That was a phishing script sent to you by a cracker. But most dumb script & message ever to be written. More elegant way of phishing exists. anyway rep+ to dragon.

LOL...Thanks Luke.

Please don't write a good script for them.

Luke Skywalker · 08-20-09, 09:48 PM

That method is simple. Time-out the user & give him script then . That's why whenever time out happen, I always do refresh. So that fake packets send should be removed & new one come. That's why I will recommend whenever anyone having time out to refresh his page.

This method is not used much because it is too difficult for script kiddies which are major cause of concern. But a cracker will always use this method. This method hardly raises anyone suspicions.

Done...........
