Dear Customers!


Please note that the recent increase of unauthorized emails sending under the names of well-known brands, including Piraeus Bank.


If you have received a fraud letter, remember that the only purpose of its sender is to get you enter a fraudulent website where your passwords might have been stolen or you can be even deceived with tempting offers of getting easy money (winnings, compensations, etc.).


We strongly recommend you not to follow the links in such letters and not to enter your password in unknown websites, even if they are very similar to a website of the organization you known. If you enter your information on the phishing website, it can be used for the purpose of accessing your account. In addition, similar websites may infect your computer with a virus that steals passwords.
