Found this over on Daily Mail website and its only a matter of time before it reaches us, if not here already. So consider it as a heads up ;)

wow, quite a bit of sensationalism there.. and sounds like a punt for Mac and McAfee.

Sound security and basic common sense will keep your online banking safe.

Should be interesting to see attempted payments to foreign accounts without an OTP...

Always check your balance and have a good idea of what it is.

Ja, mine is easy to remember... it's usually around R0.00.

Dang... I hope they don't empty my account! :D
