Regions Bank Alert- Online Banking Suspended (PHISHING/IDENTITY THEFT FRAUD SCAM SUPPOSEDLY FROM "REGIONS BANK SECURITY DEPT")

Sorry, but this just doesn't fly. See, banks always use your personal e-mail address, not "undisclosed-recipients".  They address you by name, not "Dear Customer". They would also know if you are a customer or not.  If there's an issue with your account or personal info, they ask you to either contact them or go directly to their web site and log in. So, you see, it's all very elementary that this scammer is clueless or greedy. Don't click on the link, should you receive this, but hit the delete button.
