Hi everyone,
Please BEWARE if you have received any bogus scam email asking that you to verify your Bank of America account ... as shown below. It is a scam email; if click on the link and it redirects you to sign on at scammer's website (Not Bank of America official website).

Their bogus website displays and undercovers under the name of Bank of America, but they redirects you to this:

As you see their website address is completely bougus. So please people do not click, report to the authority, ISP to stop these scammers.

Dear Bank of America customer,

During our regularly scheduled account maintenance and verification procedures, we have detected a slight error in your billing information.

This might be due to either of the following reasons:

1. A recent change in your personal information ( i.e.change of address).
2. Submiting invalid information during the initial sign up process.
3. An inability to accurately verify your selected option of payment due to an internal error within our processors.

Please update and verify your information by clicking the link below:

If your account information is not updated within 48 hours then your ability to access your account will become restricted.

Thank you

these are common things now. got addicted to it. stupids don't even look what they send and how they send. It says price won on yahoo and email is sent from hotmail or some other email. don't know when these stupids learn.

There is not only bank of America. I got many email similar like this, some of them is from National Bank, UK Bank. This people still not give up to trap anybody. Just be careful guys...

One time just out of curiousity, i visited one of those sites and found how they are cheating the people. the link actually leads to a site which is a lookalike of the bank that was sent and if someone who don't know about such phishing attacks will definitely fall for it.
