Chase–Reacting to WPCNR Spotting an “official looking bank communication scam”

Hits: 97

WPCNR SCAMSTOPPERS. From Abuse@Chase.com. December 28, 2019:

This morning WPCNR received a letter from “Chase” via e-mail about a transaction that was made by my defunct account on December 27 in Charlotte, North Carolina. 

I called up my local White Plains Chase bank where I used to have accounts, the key words are “used to.” The Chase person handling my call identified it as a scam and suggested I forward it to abuse@chase.com . I did that and received this warning in return from Chase:
