Regions Online Banking

We recently have determined that different computers have logged onto your Online Banking account, and multiple password failures were present before the logons. We now need you to re-confirm your account information to us.

If this is not completed by February 4th 2007, we will be forced to suspend your account indefinitely, as it may have been used for fraudulent purposes. We thank you for your cooperation in this manner.


To confirm your Online Banking records click on the following link:

Thank you for your patience in this matter.

Please do not reply to this e-mail as this is only a notification. Mail sent to this address cannot be answered.

I don't even know whom Regions Bank is

That address redirects, or is mal-linked, to an IP address.

Just so you know
