My knowledge of obscure online banks has greatly increased thanks to these wonderful Nigerian phishing schemes. Seriously, I though TD Bank was made up until I looked it up.
Dear customer,
Please note that your TD Bank online banking account is about to expire.
It is strongly recommended to update it immediately.

Sincerely, TD Bank Administration.
That’s a pretty typical (though very bad as far as it goes) phish. What’s ironic is that TD themselves are now using spam to push their own insurance brokerage. I can tell you I *used* to be a TD customer up until that happened.
