Must be someone who doesn't speak German very well:

Due to the recent fraud trial of some of our customers' bank accounts, one of our servers, security was very damaged, including our netbanking login database. We advise you to your account information by logging into your account from this link:

https: / / www.sparkasse.at/

If you refuse to return your account, this may to some permanent loss of information (your name, address, account history, funds) or closing your account permanently We are deeply regret this situation and we are working to improve our Security system.
