Fraudulent E-Mail

The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) has received numerous reports of a fraudulent e-mail that has the appearance of being sent from the FDIC.

The e-mail appears to be sent from a "regulations@fdic.gov" e-mail address and has a subject line that reads: "2011 updated FDIC regulations."

The e-mail starts out by saying "New Regulation approved for the FDI act expected to be implemented untill december 2011." (note: Typographical errors are included). The e-mail attempts to trick recipients into clicking on a link directing recipients to a fraudulent Web site.

This e-mail and link are fraudulent. Recipients should consider the intent of this e-mail as an attempt to collect personal or confidential information, or to load malicious software onto end users' computers. Recipients should not click on the link provided.
