Phishing
E-Mail's:
Another example of
fraudulent e-mails being circulated, which are attempting to lure
people to follow a website link and leave their personal information.
This e-mail is sent under the name of Regions Bank.
This is the text of the
email. In many of these phishing emails the text is identical to this
one but the design and institutional names vary. Regions Bank is a
Southern United States financial institution covering Texas, Arkansas,
Louisiana, Mississippi, Tennessee, Alabama, Georgia, North and South
Carolina, and Florida. You'll notice that the email specifically
states, "Please do not answer this email"--well of course not, they do
not want Regions to be alerted. Instead, by clicking the link you are
redirected to the fraudulent site. Do Not Be Fooled by the
official looking website. As we teach in the Identity Theft seminar,
your bank or any bank for that matter will not be making changes in
this manner. If by chance an email or postal letter arrives and it is
allegedly sent by an institution that you happen to do business with,
check with them first--make sure it is legitimate.
