Those buggers are getting pretty slick. I got one way back, the BOA logo and email looked authentic, but as usual it was suspicious. I just recently got the same one from chase and another one from paypal. You can't trust anyone anymore, they spoof the e-mail address so it looks like the company email domain name etcc... I wish they were a little more pro-active about hunting these guys and shuting them down it's not that difficult given the resources the big companies have available.

Lowest form of life on the planet. Much lower than a common crook.  They have to be pretty smart to know how to do this kinda stuff. Scumbags.

Patty told me tonight she heard of an e-mail flying around with a link to see the lunar eclipse.  ZAP - it kills your hard drive.
