Free content for your credit union blog!
The Federal Trade Commission has released three videos to illustrate how folks try to phish you for your personal information.
While they aren’t passing around the videos for use, please feel free to use the graphic I clipped
from their site (I think that’s legal right?). Just drag thisgraphic to your desktop or click the image with your right mouse button and select “Save image to desktop” and there you go.
Then link the image to http://www.ftc.gov/bcp/edu/multimedia/video/ogol/phishing/index.shtml and you are done. This information may seem a little goofy but people are still
falling for these phishing scams.

LOL, I wasn’t going to comment on the content. I figure that it caters to those who fall for these types of scams. So in the end I guess it serve’s it’s purpose.
It could have been worse. It could have had a “Hacker-esque” video montage of people with ASCII characters scrolling across their faces.
