I've had mine get locked cause someone kept trying to access it but he was using the wrong username which was one letter different. happens all the time according to the lady I talked to.

Doh, you can root around in the directory of that link. BOA needs to fix that.

Also, kinda wanna d/l that zip on there and see what it is.

Where does one report phishing scams to again?

Nevermind I have google http://www.us-cert.gov/nav/report_phishing.html

ALthough that site looks a little fishy (no pun intended)

That does make me wonder how many they sent it out to if you don't even have an account there

Remind me to shut up with my wisecracks about bank stuff in the future. I had a fraud attempt on mine that required Suntrust sending me a new card. DOH!

Got the same e-mail today too. I don't have a BOA account either. I ignored it.
