Got a very similar scam from "paypal" and reported it. Got hit last night for a "citibank checking account" that I don't have.

Got the same and so did my sister.

BTW...My ZoneAlarm is going crazy tonight with a ping about every 8 seconds, all from random sources. Anybody else noticing this? (maybe I need to lay off the "patriot act" threads... ) ;)

There's been a rash of these types of bogus e-mails trying to get people to submit all of their info, everything they need to drain their checking accounts.

I always forward these types of E-mails to my ISP, everyone should do that so maybe they could locate them and help to get them prosecuted.


I wish they'd find these scammers and hang them.
