If your bank thinks there is a problem with your account, they will call you, not send a general email.

I used to get these kinds of emails from Sunbelt Bank and some similar banks. I have never had an account with a Sunbelt Bank, so that was my first clue.

NEVER click on an email link to a financial institution. If you have an account and are concerned, start with the ‘real’ link in your bookmark/favorites.

Repeat: NEVER click on an email link to a financial institution.

Wells Fargo always calls me when any "strange" expenditure shows on my account, (even when it's me doing it).

I was purchasing something from a site overseas and Chase sent me a lot of emails within seconds of my click to buy.

What is interesting, before my purchase ever went through, two different companies were charging very similar amounts on my card, but not the company that I was trying to use. The scam companies beat the legitimate one.

Anyway, they do send emails.

“Repeat: NEVER click on an email link to a financial institution.”

Well worth repeating.
