With Neteller reporting that they will contact customers via email with instructions on accessing the money that has been held for the past seven months, you can be certain that phishing scam artists have their plans in place. We can expect that there will be very official looking emailed attempts to access account holders’ bank account information from those looking to profit from the confusion surrounding the Neteller plan.

Do not use any emailed correspondence from Neteller to enter what you believe to be their site. If you get an email that appears to announce the distribution of funds, separately go visit Neteller’s site, log in, and go through the process on their site to claim your money.

If you’re a Neteller account holder and this is all news to you, get up to speed on the money that you have coming back to you.
