I recieved a very professional looking, fake e-mail today from some scumbags, claiming to be JP Morgan Chase saying my online banking account had been accessed and they wanted to confirm my account information. Don't fall for this. The page they created looks like Chases.

I get these all the time at Bank of America. It's actually scary how legit they look, and I can only imagine how many people DON'T notice that it's fake.

 

Seriously. Don't EVER enter any information like that, it's just dangerous. Unless you type in the site yourself, and you are SURE you entered it correctly, or you are at a banking center, do NOT enter any information.

This page looked authentic except the blue color was a little off, and the dead giveaway was all the information they were seeking. Names, addresses, pin, card #, 3 digit security code, mothers maiden name, account #s, etc.

 

I can see how some people fall for this. I reported it to Chase. I don't think theres much they can do though.

That's the thing, when they ask for ALL your information, you can tell it's a scam. Even a teller can get just about any information they want about an account holder, there is NO reason why they would be asking for info.

Forward the page to and url to Chase customer service. They will investigate and try to shut them down.

I reported it to Chase.

I got a call tonight that was authentic. False charges made today in Skokie, IL. I made the operator give me enough info to make sure she was not phishing.

If you ever get an email stating anything, don't ever enter your user ID and password.

 

Close the email, then go to the site that is stored in your favorites and log in through there. If it is a legit eMail then the site will tell you that information is needed.
