    To whom it might concern. I got the following text last evening. The website it redirects to looks very convincing too. It would easily fool some people.

    BOI: Your 365 online access is suspended due to unusual activity. To restore access please follow the steps via https://bankofireland-info.co

    Text came from nunber +353 89 405 5394

    BTW I tried to report this by sending an email to 365security@boi.com, as instructed on your website (https://www.bankofireland.com/security-zone/fraudster-tactics/suspicious-texts/#tabpanel_2). But my emails got rejected. You might want to check either that email address or update your website accordingly.

    Regards

    Hi There,

    Thanks for getting in touch with us.

    This would be a fraudulent message. Please delete the message and do not follow any links or reply. Bank of Ireland will never contact you asking for any of your account, or online banking information.

    Thanks, Aisling
