Would someone please tell them that someone is sending scam e-mails
that indicate that there is a bank scam operating via the aupark.org
website:

home/index.html
Here is the letter (with my e-mail xxed out) that I received. Note
that it gives the the appearance of coming from the actual bank, but
the link goes to the aupark.org website:
