The geniuses at Chase Bank have hired a company to handle their
email, that has in turn hired an "ex-spammer" to do the actual SMTP
work. So now all the phishes AND legit emails from Chase are being
flagged by ClamXav! Over the past week, we've received phishies
for Chase that look, from the headers, legit, as they came out of
the same SMTP servers! The HTML is near perfect. The only way you
can tell they're phishies is that the urls are dotted ips instead
of chase.com.

They are not the only bank that does that kind of stuff. I received a
legitimate email from my bank (M&T) that, doing the hover, showed
that the link in it went to some third party tracking kind of site,
but the shown address was MTB.com. I called to confirm that it was
real. Then gave them Holy H*ll about the idiocy of preaching about
online security and phishing education, then doing something like that.
