Below is the story of someone that I received. The screen shot looks like real one.
Last night at around 8:20 pm, I tried to log on to DBS internet banking. I clicked on my Favorites and I was brought to the website below. If you are a DBS i-banking user, you will readily notice that this website seems to be different as it is asking you for your DBS iB secure PIN right on the first page. Typically, you will only be asked for the DBS iB secure PIN after you have successfully keyed in your User ID and Password. In any case, since I did not suspect anything wrong, I keyed in the three numbers required. After I have entered the numbers, a new webpage appeared saying that I should wait for the SMS One Time Password (OTP). I waited for a few seconds and none came.
That’s when I suspected that something was wrong. So I called up DBS hotline and I was told that the website below is NOT their website. So DBS immediately cancelled my i-banking services and verified that none of my monies were transferred.
When I used my home computer and my colleague’s office computer this morning to log on to DBS again, thankfully I was brought to the right website.

If DBS is a responsible and proactive bank, they should send a email warning to all its customer who uses i-banking together with a screenshot like you did. Great Job Agnes!
This is scary. But to look at the fake DBS website, it doesn't looks like a professional / enterprise level website.
but how is it they still can direct the fake site to dbs.com.sg domain?
unless it's like DBS.com then i'll know it's fake
I also not too sure about this, the url looks real, either someone so boliao create the story, or really her computer is compromised. But maybe this is out dated, as the date is 2007.
DBS actually has more info on their website (including how to clean the trojan):
