I've gotten about a half dozen of these allegedly from various banks in the last couple of years, some I've never heard of and all with banks I don't have accounts with. The real banks ask that you contact them when you get these so the e-mail can be forwarded to them so they can track down the scam artists.

Im posting this to try and imform people of the problems with these emails. As they will have access to your account if you fill out the form, which means they steal all your hard earned cash. This includes Amazon and Ebay accounts, so the aim is to be as cautious as possible.
