Bank Email Scams!!!

I have received several bank notices, all saying the same thing, from north fork, chase and colonial bank (huh???) saying that someone has tried to access my account from an IP address and to log on to verify some b/s. Both NFB and Chase have told us these are scams and where on earth is there a Colonial Bank??? Anyway, they look amazingly authentic, but don't believe them. Chat Icon

i actually would believe the paypal one, i had my credit card stolen and i'm pretty sure it was from there, because everytime i used to post it on there it would get stolen.

Re: Bank Email Scams!!!

I usually try to send a copy of the email to the company's spoof email address so they can try to track the person. I don't know if it helps or not, but it makes me feel better. I know they are scams, even the paypal one, because I use only one email address for paypal and another for general shopping. both are seperate from my general mail email address.
