    Default I know this is a scam....

    I received this email today. I don't have ANY BANK OF AMERICA credit cards or accounts.. I changed the link slightly to keep some one from going to the site Also the link is not secure. Can you imagine the damage that someone could do with this information.

    What's really frightening is the number of people who will receive that and NOT immediately think it's a scam, click on the link, gladly give up all their personal data, and then be surprised when someone goes and buys a plasma TV on their credit card...

    That's a good one. I imagine that they will get quite a few people. Decent English, for a change.
