What's happening
A hallmark of phishing is a message that manufactures a reason to log in right now — 'verify your account', 'unusual activity', 'confirm your details' — with a convenient link. The link leads to a fake page that captures whatever you type.
What to do
Genuine Credit Corp messages tell you what happened but ask you to sign in yourself by typing credicorp.co.uk — never through a supplied link. Don't click; check the sender and, if unsure, open the account directly. Report it via reporting suspected fraud. See spotting phishing and checking a link.
