The e-mail directs the user to visit a Web site where they are asked to update personal information, such as passwords and credit card, social security, and bank account numbers, that the legitimate organization already has.

Keyloggers, as a surveillance tool, are often used by employers to ensure employees  use work computers for business purposes only. Unfortunately, keyloggers can also  be embedded in spyware allowing your information to be transmitted to an unknown third party.
