windelinaI received an email from my bank letting me know that my account had been suspended due to suspicious activities on the part of people/accounts known to be fraudulent.
It provided a link to click on where I could verify my account. (Which would have included entering my account number, I'm betting, except that the link didn't load on my browser...which made me stop and look and...)
It was itself a fraudulent email! Which I figured out when I noticed that the email came from an "att.net" account instead of a "usbank.com" account.
Oh, those sneaky sneaks.
I called my bank and let them know about it, and asked them to note that I received the email on this date (just in case they somehow did get info on my account...I'm paranoid). And I forwarded the email to their fraud help email.
So - keep your eyes open! These sneaky sneaks are getting sneakier...
