More great news. Got this from our internal watchdog types:
[i]We have been advised of a new identity fraud scam. A bogus letter, which appears to be from Chase, explains that completion of an attached IRS Form W-9095 (which is also bogus) will exempt certain individuals from federal withholding taxes on bank interest and other financial dealings. Information requested includes SSN, date of birth, mother's maiden name, bank relationships, account numbers, and PIN's.
Neither JPMorgan Chase nor the Internal Revenue Service have not sent this correspondence and form to anyone.
If you are aware of any customers who receive these documents, advise them not to complete them, and notify Jim at [redacted] or Walter at [redacted] of the Fraud Prevention and Investigation Department, citing the above warning number.
Please distribute this information throughout your organization. [/i]
and so I've included you, dear reader, on this also.
