The notice includes an example of a fake email purporting to be from the Maybank technical department, which claims that the recipient has had their account locked for security reasons.
In the example email is also a fake login button, with instructions stating that customers who receive the email and do not verify themselves will have their transactions blocked.
Maybank states in the post that it will never share links for customers to click on, or ask for personal banking details.
