They just never quit.
This one crossed our desk. There are occasions when your bank will send you a note saying there is a problem but those occasions are rare – and when they do send you a note they ask you to go to a branch of the bank or call someone at a number they give you.
When you get something like the following – delete it and move on.
One of the reasons the fraudsters continue to do this is because some people respond – and that often proves to be very expensive.
