Subject: Citizens Bank - Account Balance Threshold NotificationYou requested to be notified when your balance for Account xxxxxxxxxx is above $xxxx.00. Logon to Online Banking at http://www.citizensbank.com to view your balance information, transfer funds or pay bills.
Your bank sends you an email that actually_*CONTAINS*_ information about your account!!!! There is enough information in the above one line of the email to make you the target of every scammer on the planet!!!!! As to the link I would have expected it to be at least "https".As to the URL, I get at least one email a week that tells me to go to xyz company site to track a package, check my banks account, arrange a delivery, send my son money... all of which take me to fake web sites. Some of them are really good imitations, some of them should learn to spell before trying it on. The only consistent thing about them is that none of them is ever legit.
I suggest that you should start to lobby your bank to tighten up it security practices. John A
