Phishing Alert: Butterfield Private Bank

The folks at Websense have put out an advisory regard in the Butterfield Private Bank.

Butterfield Bank (UK) Limited is a wholly owned subsidiary of The Bank of N.T. Butterfield & Son Limited. The parent bank was established in Bermuda in 1858. The Group is also represented in six other international locations.

I myself used to be a customer of the Butterfield Bank’s parent company.

From the alert:
