Latest Scam Wants Military Bank Information
Week of October 30, 2006
Stars and Stripes reports that e-mails addressed to a ?BOA Military Bank Customer? might appear to be from Community Bank, the financial institution on many U.S. bases run by Bank of America under a contract from the Department of Defense. It may be targeting those who hold government travel cards through Bank of America or those who choose to open accounts specifically geared toward servicemembers. The e-mails are just another in a series of scams from someone trying to steal money or personal information from unsuspecting computer users. Legitimate companies and organizations will never ask for information in e-mails such as user IDs, passwords, account numbers or Social Security numbers.
