Sent phlishing email for HSBC who do I report it too?

Hi there

don't bank with HSBC but have been sent an email saying faults on my bank account, click to varify details.

Is there any way I can forward this to HSBC's fraud dept for them to investigate?

Thanks

    If you are suspicious of an email that purports to come from HSBC, please forward it to phishing@hsbc.com.

    There you go.

    Many thanks have done.
  • Personally I would not bother - I get dozens of these every day from banks all over the world.
    If I tried to report everyone I would not have time to go to work.
