Is this ABN AMRO email real or a scam?
What a real ABN AMRO email looks like
ABN AMRO emails come from @abnamro.nl and never ask you to confirm your account, PIN or codes, or to log in through a link. Real notices send you to the app or to abnamro.nl, which you open yourself.

Contact your bank immediately to block or reverse the payment, change any password you entered, and turn on two-factor authentication. Then report it.
