Hi: I recently received a car loan from Wells Fargo and have successfully set up my account and received a letter confirming the loan. Today, I get an email from that looks real and says there is a problem with my account and to click on a link and give them an ID number they referenced in the email.

I am not going to answer it, do others believe this is a scam of some sort?

thanks

Thanks so much! I called Wells Fargo and it is a scam and was told to forward the email to them for their records.

Thanks!

I guess there's a dept. that handles such scam attempts. If the mail addresses a genuine problem it can be easily tracked down. Get in touch with them without wasting much of your valuable time.
