I had one from Wachovia a few weeks ago telling me about 'my account'. I don't have an account at Wachovia. It even listed a phone number on the page. So just for the heck of it I called the phone number. It was an automated number that said something like 'you have reached a Wachovia number that is no longer in service'.

What worries me is that some people actually think these things are real just because it's official looking.

Thanks for the reminder, OP!
