    Looks like you got phished. Doubt that was the real bank site. Suggest you change your passwords if you logged in to that site, too.

      Banks and hospitals sell your information, too.

      When my wife gave birth to our son at the hospital, I have to put down my phone number as part of the check in form. Immediately the next day I got call for “Home care services for new mom and baby”.

        …hospitals sell your information, too.

        I feel so sorry for those of you living in places with for-profit healthcare.

        Oh totally. But they don’t sync that information “immediately”. Nor would they ever want to because then the user would know that’s where the information came from.

          I don’t think they really care if it’s not actually illegal.

          Or they could sell the data in bulk. And the day I put in my number just happens to be the day they sell their database.
