BANK OF AMERICA SCAM...IMPORTANT!

[StealthSniper01]

Just received this scam e-mail, notice who sent it and also the fact that I don't have a Bank of America account. Also...Bank of America wouldn't use a .co.uk email would they? Thats just common sense.

Just a typical phishing scam. Nothing to worry about, just mark it as spam and move on.

I know that of course. I posted it because obviously enough people fall trick to this that their PayPal accounts are stolen and then used to illicitly purchase WoW accounts here on Markee. It was just a warning to someone who might also receive this phishing scam and not realize it.
