I thought I would post this to the list since some people tend to act hastily when they receive these types of emails. The emails may look like they belong to your bank and the web page you are directed to is the same...be cautious and call the bank..
Beware of Bank Scams We are seeing an increase over the last two weeks in the number of scam e-mails purporting to be from banks and financial institutions, asking recipients to go to a Web site and update their account information. One common example claims to be from Wells Fargo and states that your account has been "frozen" until you go to a Web site and verify your account information. Another purports to be from Citibank and states that they are updating their software and need you to confirm your account data. This is a form of "phishing" for account numbers, PINs, etc. that can be used to remove money from your bank account. Most banks will not notify you of account problems via e-mail. If you think such a message might actually be from your bank, we recommend that you call the bank and provide the information they need over the phone, rather than online.
