fraud alert

[Full Quiver]

I just got an email "from" Bank of America telling me to click on a link and log onto my online account. The funny thing is I don't use Bank of America. The link had the word sniper in it so I wondered. I would never have clicked on it anyhow but do be careful if you are a customer and get such an email.

I do bank with Bank of America. I have gotten fake emails in the past asking me to log on and update my password. I don't do that. I call them. This was a phishing expedition. Always call.

REAL institutions NEVER, EVER, EVER GIVE YOU A LINK TO CLICK ON. They ALWAYS tell you to log in to your account.

Plus....Legitimate emails address you by the name on your account...not Dear Bank of America Customer.

Both of those are sure fire ways to know whether it is false or real.
