Watch for this in your e-mail box, I have gotten this type of "phishing" e-mail from several different institutions, none of which I have accounts with. Clicking on it directs you to a website which looks authentic (again with proper corporate logos, et cetera) and asks you to put in your account information. You can tell easily by looking at the unusal webaddress. I have let all the companies know about them as I have recieved them and they are aware of these attacks.

Just a heads up.
