Phishers are getting dumber every day.
Irish banks don’t send emails to their clients that often and they definitely don’t send them on Saturdays…
The phisher who took advantage of an insecure server should really have waited until Monday to send out his phish
And maybe they need to get some lessons in design as well… I love the way the email was put together using FrontPage!

The phisher’s target is the non tech savy, so even low levels of sophistication will result in some success.

I know that they’re targetting the non-techs, but even the non-techs are becoming aware of phishing after all the media attention in the past few months. When we sent out a valid email to our client base a few months ago asking them to ensure that their details were up to date we got quite a few calls from people who wanted to check if it was a valid email!
