The "Chase We Detect Unusual Activity On Your Account" Phishing Email Scam
The fake Chase "We Detect Unusual Activity On Your Account" email message below, which claims the recipients' account has been placed on hold for their protection, is a phishing scam. The fake email message was not sent by Chase, but by cyber-criminals. Therefore, recipients of the same email message are asked not to follow the instructions or click on the links within it. The links go to a fake JPMorgan Chase Bank website designed to trick visitors into stealing their Chase usernames and passwords. This is why it is recommended that online users never click on a link in an email message to sign into their online accounts. They should instead, go directly to their online account providers' websites and sign into their accounts from there.
