An ELSTER-Style Account Verification Prompt
Credibility concern recorded. The source reference remains available for verification and correction.
A German-language page impersonating an ELSTER account service and requesting personal, tax, and banking details.
- For
- People studying phishing and official-service impersonation
- Worth noticing
- The form requests both a German tax ID and an IBAN under a 72-hour access-deactivation warning.
Field notes
The page wraps a short three-stage workflow—Daten, Verifizierung, Abgeschlossen—in a simulated account area with links for profile, settings, help, and logout. Its form requests an unusually broad bundle of identity and financial details, including tax ID and IBAN, while a session countdown and 72-hour deactivation warning add pressure. The extract shows no login gate and does not establish the form’s submission destination.
