<p align="justify">Yesterday at 15:46 hours, our security systems recorded an attempt to change
your internet banking email address. Your internet
banking email address is the email address you chose
when you registered for our internet banking service.
We use this email address to keep you informed about new
developments in our internet banking service and general changes made to
your account via the internet.<br>
<br>
The email address change was initiated from a
blacklisted and suspicious IP address (216.89.75.31). We
however declined the change and placed an online access
restriction on your account. We took this measure to
protect your account from any fraudulent transaction.<br>
<br>
In other to restore your online access, we need a
verification of your identity and
current location. If successful, all
restrictions on your account will be removed and you
will be able to use your account normally. This process
takes approximately 5 minutes, depending on the speed of
your internet connection. To proceed please

<p align="justify">Please note that failure to verify your identity and current location
within a week of receipt of this email will lead to a
suspension of your account with us. We sincerely regret
any inconvenience.</font><font face="Arial" size="2"><font face="Verdana" size="2"><br>
