The Observation Deck

I am being inundated with emails from supposedly this bank about my account, of which I have none. Who do we report these fraudulent emails to, trying to rip people off by getting their personal information? Is there a local place to send them to?

You could probably also forward them to FFL as I'm sure they'll want to look into it also. Here's their e-mail info@FFL.net

I did a trace on the server the email(s) are coming from; it's a server in Macau. I've sent an email to their abuse team to let them know.

Thanks! I did contact FF and they did reply right away with an email saying it is fraud. What abuse team do you mean David?

The abuse team for the server that is hosting the phishing site.

First Fed is well aware of the emails. Talked with Dave Shaw, and FFL is doing all it can to put a stop to this phising expedition.
There's a number of them going out:
A fake customer satisfaction survey that promises an $80.00 participation reward,
An alert that your accounts have been frozen,
An advisory that you have a tax refund due

All seek personal information: account numbers, PINs, etc.

Of course, NEVER release such information in response to an email.....no matter how official it looks.

Jeff, I never give them my own info, I just use yours.

What I've been doing is open up the raw text of the email that will show the message headers. I find the domain that the email came from and send an email to their abuse team, usually abuse@whateverdomain.com.

More often than not, the sender's account will be cancelled.

I also send an email to the host of the website link in the email as well.
