Thanks for posting this. It's a typical phishing email, and would contain a link that may appear to be the real bank. The link would actually take you to a compromised website, or special site created for the collection of personal details.

You can report this type of email to the Anti Phishing Working Group [link (http://www.antiphishing.org/report_phishing.html)].
