I cant beleive it, Inside Edition is on right now talking about Internet theives that steel peoples identity like credit card info or banking information. One of the scams they just talked about what getting email like fom Bank of America asking you to update your account infomation, this a scam to get you info. I knew this already, because I just got one of those emails today asking me to update my bank infomation, I know better than that, and besides I dont even have an accout with Bank of America. Well, I clicked on the link any just to see the phoney website and it came up blank , not there. Someone must have figured it out it was a scam site and deleted the site. Watch out for anyone email you for your personal info saying they are your bank, its a scam. Never give your personal info though an email, a Bank would never ask you that over the intenet.

This is happening, and it is very real. I have a friend that just lost $70,000. on line this way. Do not open anything from anyone and give out any info. None of the banks, or Pay Pal would ever email that. Some of them try scare practices, but, do not get alarmed. I rated you another ++ for such a fine post. It will help you with your stars. Bless you.

Yeah, bunny you have to watch out for that kinda stuff. You dont want to give anyone your personal info through an email request.
