Hi, I know a lot of people posted concerns about dodgy emails from so called financial companies, just received this one

The email is from chase.com, just wondered what people thought, I dont have an email with chase.com and never have so just thought I;d check even though its most likely balls.

Cheers
 
Phone the bank, ask them.

EDIT: Most likely a scam though. Do not put details anywhere which request it via an e-mail.
 
Yeah a good old 419 attempt, as i got one as well and did the usual with it and deleted it.

Quite simple.

Any email from bank goes in bin.

If there's anything important, it'll be displayed on their site, which you should get to BY TYPING IN THE URL MANUALLY, not by following the link within an email.
 
if your worried go and log onto your bank yourself

never follow links in e-mails to anything that asks you for a password

if you were really having dubious account activity the bank would phone you up and talk to you about it

edit: bah, beaten to it :)
 
I got the same email.

Its blatantly phishing, i've never even heard of the chase bank

So i followed the link, filled in the username and password, telling them where to poke their scam, and "logged in"

:D
