the sad part is millions fall for this every year...

my bank sends me an e-mail and ALWAYS addresses me by name and they never ask me to log on it is a message to call the bank

i got one asking me to log into my bofa account, which i do have, but i thought it was fishy, so i called the REAl bank and asked. they said that sight steals your login and then steals your moo-la!!! i gave them a copy of the email and they handled it. at least I didnt fall for it!

When I get any emails that "offer" or "notify" I immediately delete. If it was something valid or really important they would not send an email. They would send a certified letter via snail mail.

By way of a tip...if you DO get an email from a company that you are a customer of, that you aren't sure if it's legit (and 99.999 percent are NOT legit)

MOST companies have a 'report fraudlent email' link on their home page. I know BofA does and I forward any emails that a phishing ones to them when I get them.
