Dear GT Bank Customer,

This is to inform the general public that on Friday 02/07/2010, the GTB Bank Network Server hosting was infected with an Mpack Multi-Pertite Malware (a computer virus used by cyber criminals to access and steal information from a database).


Though it is still unclear how many ATM & Internet Banking Information have been infected with the virus, computer security experts say 30% of ATM & Internet Banking Informations on the network would have been infected. As at 9:00am local time, we had received 117 complaints of unauthorized cash withdrawals from Bank Accounts through ATM & Internet Banking.
