The spiralling number of cases of "phishing" email scams, a practice which involves computer hackers luring consumers into handing over their internet banking passwords unwittingly, could be tackled by the banks according to a leading web security expert.

Reacting to a report by the Anti-Phishing Working Group, which highlighted that six-and-a-half-thousand new types of phishing email had circulated around the internet in October - three times higher than in the summer - John Rainford, Chief Executive Officer at internet security specialists PassGo Technologies, said there is cost effective software already developed which would safeguard against consumers' password details being passed onto the hackers.
