bank account question

ok guys this is really starting to freak me out.

i do NOT have a chase bank account. lately i've gotten about 4 or 5 email notifications from chase about some unusual activity on my account. i have never even created an account on chase.com. is it possible someone could be somehow using my info? or is this a scam? here's the email i got sent this time:

Your online credit card account has high-risk activity status. We are contacting you to remind you that on March. 13, 2006 our Account Review Team identified some unusual activity in your account.

Scam.

Never give out any personal info online through a verification website...

Call them for re-asurance.

i'm thinking it is cuz i tried loggin in to chase from their website and i don't even have a password so i was wondering if someone had my info. plus only 1 link works but i didn't click it and the other 2 redirecting to chase.com aren't funtional.

also how do you report the email as a scam? and how do you spam them?

it's phishing... ignore it... get a credit report if your really worried... also I don't think chase would email you over something so major... they'd call

yay!....

ohh and you might want to get a credit report anyways if you've never had one. You can get them free and it's good to familiarize yourself with them b/c you'll probably spend many hours agonizing about your **** score over the course of your life...

i've never had a credit score but i have outstanding credit. i've only missed like 1 payment out of the 3 years i've had credit. also, where can i get a free credit report?

*edit* i just filed for a freecreditreport online and i have no negative reports! :-D

Chase will call you. I just received a call from them today with a question about something I bought. I thought it was pretty cool that they called me to verrify a large debit from my account. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

that's cool. i had more common sense than try to give out my info in an email like that esp since i don't have a chase account. thanks guys.
