Phish / Fraud / Email: Account Alert Notification - Bank Of America

Got a bunch of these today, about 2-dozen. They are so badly done I assume
no one will fall for it, unless they can't read the screen and click links
all willy-nilly (is that how you spell willy-nilly?)

Just in case, this of course is a very obvious scam. The link tells the
story (removed) and the attachment (removed) is dangerous.

Don't follow links that you are not sure is real and validated, always just
go to the actual website on your own to check if there are any issues. Do
not open attachments that you are not expecting, even if from friends w/o
confirming they intended to send the attachment.
