Default RE: URGENT PHISHING

Good thing you checked. I used to work for a major bank here in Canada, and we'd get phone calls from people like you , who recieved suspicious emails asking them for login information or personal information. Companies NEVER email their custommers asking them for information. They will usually ask you to come in person if there is any issues to discuss. Phishing is a crime. People just try anything to get money from you. Banks are not the only one with that problem, STEAM phishing seems to have been an issue of late, where people try to steal people's steam account login info to get their accounts.

All the time and effort they put into this, they should just get off their asses and get a job, making their own money instead of being theives and stealing from people who've worked hard for theirs.

Edit: Also, don't fall for phone calls asking you to type a number , or claim prizes, or asking you any personal information. It's been done over the phone too.
