This spammed message poses as a notification for banking and payment services, Discover Financial Services. It coaxes users to click on a link to an important message about their Discover card, specifically of a recent operation being reversed. It uses an accurate template of Discover email but changes where the link leads.

Users may be alarmed if they did conduct recent operations on the card, leading to clicking the bogus link. These links are already blocked by Trend Micro. Users should refrain from clicking links on notifications sent over email, even as the message presentation appear legitimate.
