I have received multiple calls from this (800) number saying there is a problem with my fifth third bank account… I know it is fishy because I don’t have a fifth third bank account and never banked with fifth third ever. I believe they are calling me only because I have a (859) area code.

I received a text message from an email address saying my Fifth Third banking account was locked. Immediately, I knew that this message was fake and was not sent by Fifth Third. The link redirected me to a fake Fifth Third login page. At the bottom of the page were other links you would see on a normal website: "about us," "Contact us," "Careers," etc. Each link, when clicked on, was redirected to a "404 NOT FOUND" web address page.

I received an email that said it was from Fifth/Third Bank and that there was trouble on my account so it had been temporarily suspended. It said that I needed to use the link in the email to verify my account(s) or they would be frozen. I do not have an account with this bank. However, even if I did, I would not follow the link without calling my bank to verify the unusual email. The email did not ask for money but I am sure it was a way to get your personal info and account numbers.
I do not think there are any of these banks in the St. Louis area but there are ATMs and with online banking, people might have accounts. I did call the fraud group at Fifth/Third Bank to let them know and they said that it was not from them. I wanted them to know since it might catch some of their customers. I also wanted the ScamPulse.com to know.
