Cembra Money Bank scam mail very well done – be aware! Yesterday I got this phishing email frim cembta money bank and almost got scammed. As you can see the mail has no grammar errors and even includes several links to the official cembra homepage. Lucky me that something seemed fishy to me and I checked the senders email adress.

– No personalised greeting
– it says “Guten Tag KOMMA” which is pretty unusual in Swiss German correspondence
– Banks will never send you an e-mail asking you to enter your login credentials, even says so in the text below which they probably copied 1:1 from a legit Cembra e-mail
General tip: hover over the link button and look at the address it will lead you.
Well done, always check sender/reply-to email!
Oddly, looking at the domain name, it looks like Portuguese/Brazilian… “engenho” roughly goes as “engine”, and assuming “cas” is part of the word, “engenhocas” then becomes (roughly) “dear little engines”, and “dolar” is obviously dollar, so overall and not creatively they named their domain “little lovely dollar making engines”… phishing ahoy indeed
checking sender’s email address is the first thing to do
very well done?
with that mail-adress?
always the first thing to do: checking absender-adress
Cembra is a scam eitherway.
This is not very well done. I didn‘t even really look at the email and i thought it must be a scam.
