Check the account-will-be-closed email
Check an alarming account email without using its link.
An email says the account closes tomorrow unless you verify. The link opens a copy of the sign-in page.
Whatever is typed there is read by the sender. Reach the company by a route you already had.
Key points
- A deadline in an email is pressure, not policy
- Reach the bank by your own app, or the number on the back of your card
What to remember
- Your own app, or the number on the back of your card.
- Reach your bank by the number on the back of your card, not the email.
Try this
Put your bank’s number in your phone tonight, copied from the back of your card.
