There are lots of things happening at industry level to stop phishing. At a bank level, people will monitor the internet to pinpoint where these attacks happen and get the host site closed down. A lot of work has been done to make customers aware of the phishing scams, which are actually really very simple to avoid. As a customer, you should be suspicious of any unsolicited email that seems to come from a bank or business that you deal with. If it invites you to click on a link and disclose personal information, don't do it: it may well be a phishing scam.
