BEWARE: Suspected Phishing within Absa ***** domain!

A couple of weeks ago, I received an Absa **** phone call, which I subsequently reported to the Absa ***** Division via email. The email response I received was from a **** email address, namely, '***'. What alerted me to check the sender email address was the nature of the request, namely, to 'flag' several phone numbers. Had I fallen for the trap, the ******** would have had direct access to my cell phone!! This time around I reported the interception / phishing of my email (which never reached the Absa ***** Division) to Security Operations Center (SOC) from whom I received an AUTOMATED response .... urging me to contact Absa ***** Division in any future communication!! REALLY!! What is unforgivable is the lack of an explanation/ corrective action. Despite sending SOC a follow up email over a week ago requesting an update, SOC has not contacted me to inform me about the status of the Absa ***** Dept. email address. At this juncture, the public has no way of knowing whether or not emails sent to Absa ***** Division are still being phished. I rest my case.
