okay, so logging back into my BoA account… I get a random POP-UP!!! NOT A LINK… from the same scammer asking me to verify this info, but Norton targeted it this time.

I just disregard those emails completely. This is why you ALWAYS manually type in the address in the address bar if you think you need to update your bank info or some crap like that. But even then, some spyware will say your at [bankofamerica.com](http://bankofamerica.com) when you are at [ISTEALURSHIT.ORG](http://ISTEALURSHIT.ORG) ---

i didn’t notice the private info until i after the fact…i “re-uploaded” an edited version of the screen shot but the host server won’t update under the same name. For some reason, any resizing or cropping on my work computer in MSPaint blurred all the text so it was unreadable. i.e. ![http://photos.e46fanatics.com/data/500/scam6.JPG](http://photos.e46fanatics.com/data/500/scam6.JPG) it should be good now ---
