Phishers Direct Real Bank URL to Their Site

Online bank users beware. From the Strategiy article, New technique for stealing financial information from computer users:

Researchers from SurfControl’s Global Threat Command Centers this week identified a technique used to exploit flaws in the Web sites for SunTrust Bank and Citibank Australia. Phishers substituted the legitimate content of the Citibank and Sun Trust’s Web sites with their own fraudulent content, while actually retaining the authentic URL address of the financial institutions. This technique makes it virtually impossible for even a sophisticated computer user to tell the difference between a fraudulent site and the real thing.
