For the past few days my phone has been getting spam (and scam) messages from a website rf.foribaglobal.com. The usual stuff - my package is ready for delivery, I've won a prize etc.

However today I got one that looks exactly like the log in screen for Banking 365, complete with BOI logo. It asks for account number and password; I didn't do it so I don't know if it then takes you to a screen for your 6 digit PIN. If it does, anyone who provides that info will probably be cleaned out.

Can you stop this?
