It can be better to do these publically. Including the newsletter could be done as a text paste of the raw message, but in this case it's probably not necessary.

Fw: Your August eNewsletter from U.S. Bank

USBank Money Wise[Apologies if this gets posted to the list twice, I inadvertently sent it from an e-mail address that I believe will be rejected by the list, since it is not subscribed to the list] Jeff, since I never saw any response as to whether you were going to whitelist "usbank-email.MUNGEDcom" or not, I thought I would just go ahead and forward the actual newsletter to the list, just in case anyone still has any doubts or concerns as to its legitimacy (note that they even included a "Phishing Alert" in the newsletter). Please let me know what you decide to do so that I have deal with this appropriately by whitelisting on my end, if necessary. Bill ----- Original Message ----- From: U.S. Bank To: my e-mail address Sent: Tuesday, August 24, 2004 8:08 AM Subject: Your August eNewsletter from U.S. Bank View this email as a Web page. Visit the U.S. Bank eNewletter Archive. Managing Money in College Even students who don't study accounting need to have money management skills. With U.S. Bank Internet Banking, you have the tools to help them establish a solid financial foundation. Internet Banking allows college students to view account activity, transfer funds and pay bills - all from their computer. Students can do the bulk of management, and you can monitor from afar, assuring that they develop financial independence, and that you get a good night's sleep. More >> Check 21: What Does it Mean to You? Check 21 is short for the Check Clearing for the 21st Century Act, which was signed into law by President Bush last year. Beginning on October 28, 2004, banks may begin to replace original paper checks with a "substitute check" if the check was cleared using an electronic image. This substitute check is the legal equivalent of the original check and meets certain characteristics, accurately representing all information on the original check and conforming to industry standards. More >> Searching Files for a Cancelled Check Just Became a Thing of the Past! Sue Smith felt her blood pressure rise when she opened the bill from her son's recent hospital stay. It was for $582! "That can't be right," she thought. Further review of the bill indicated the hospital hadn't received her last payment. "I know I paid that bill, but now I have to go home, dig through my files for last month's bank statement and make a copy of the cancelled check to show the hospital. Like I have time for this!" That might have been the case last month, but not today! Images of your cancelled checks and deposit slips are now online. More >> Phishing Alert There's a new breed of criminal out there called "phishers." They send very realistic looking emails, pretending to be from your bank or some other organization that you trust. Then they ask you to provide sensitive account information, like a PIN, Social Security number, account number or passwords. Don't do it...never, never, ever, ever, ever...ever.

Because your mailbox gives criminals an easy, convenient way to steal your personal information. When you pay your bills online, this information stays secure.
