Do not go to the website links they give you. That website is not affiliated or any part of Bank of America. If you are a bank of America customer you should report any strange emails of that sort to them so they can warn about scams to other customers. Internet phishing is where a company sends a link telling you that it is from a bank or company that would need to update your personal information. When you go to the pages they make you fill out your personal or bank information. They then use your information to break into your bank account and use your identity in their scams. Bank of America holds you totally responsible in many cases. There are so many complaints against Bank of America and other Banks in America. Be aware!
