I received a form to fill out in July, it asks for personal information, also it wants to know what country I'm born in, is also fishy, it was sent from a PO Box in Plano, Texas. There are a few numbers on it 1-866-905-2377 and 1-800-496-9471. It also said if I didn't send it to them in 15 days they would close down my account. But, I know Bank of America will never send a random email asking me to send personal information, which they already have. The people behind the email are scammers phishing for their potential victims' personal information.

I called Bank of America regarding the exact same letter with the same contact info mentioned on this post, it was real. Make sure you always call a phone number on the back of your card or on the bank's website - never contact the number on the letter (obviously). I was able to fill out all the information that was asked by the letter, via telephone

Bottom line: Like someone said above, go to a Bank of America branch with the letter and ask them whether this is legit. (And maybe ask a branch manager to confirm if the teller says it is not legit.)
Background:
I received a letter in the postal mail with the same info: Call 1-866-905-2377 or mail in the form to B of A, PO Box 269003, Plano, TX 75026-9003 or otherwise your bank account may be restricted or closed. When I went to a branch, they needed to me to confirm my identity with a Driver's license or equivalent. This letter is sent by their Fraud or Account Verification department. If you call their first level technical support, they may or may not even be aware of this group and say it is not legit. Go down to the branch.

Be careful of those people, they are scammers, they want to steal your personal information.

The number 866-905-2377 is a fax number that after verification is linked to Bank of America. When in doubt, go to a Bank Branch first to verify, which I did. Always do your due diligence before submitting any information.

    Uhh... no. I’ve been at Bank of America all day today trying to fix fraudulent charges by Chipotle and I was given this number to fax all my documents once I get them. ... by a bank member directly. Clearly you’re trying to pull something here.
