Phishbank Removal:
The general purpose of these obscured URLs is to aid in creating a believable forgery of a real web page, for example an Internet banking page. The forged page can then entice users to enter confidential information, which can be captured by the forger. This process is often called "phishing". Phishers use many different methods in order to fool users into parting with sensitive and valuable information.
Recent variants of this family have used additional techniques, such as using e-mail that is essentially one large image (as opposed to HTML with an obscured link). Hence, the user does not have to click on the URL in particular; clicking anywhere on the message body image takes an unsuspecting user to another site, which spoofs the real site in order to encourage users to part with sensitive and confidential information, namely, their online banking details.
