"Hello" is an instant giveaway as genuine emails from Wise are always addressed to the customer by full name, that's all you need to remember!

Furthermore messages will also be copied to the inbox in your account and phone app.

Wise can do little about this sort of thing and such messages are better reported to:

[email protected]

There really is no reason for anyone with their wits about them to be caught out by such a relatively crude attempt at Phishing.
