Look out for Credit Card Email Scams!



If you receive something like the example below, its either a virus or a scam.  Please be careful about these kind of emails.

They will have a zip file attached which I'm sure is a way to install a virus on your computer.

Bank Email Scam

Hi Everyone,

Things like this are a scam.  So please do not respond to anything like this.  It looks correct because it shows "www.bankamerica.com"  however, the underlying link goes to a different web site that is not bank of America.  Banks do not send emails like this one.
