    Just got a scam email in two of my email addresses, using and duplicating "BANK OF AMERICA" name saying there was an Irregular card activity and I should login to my account and etc.
    Here is the screenshot:

    That wasn't strange for me because everybody gets such emails once a while, sometimes about paypal, sometimes e-gold, ... BUT this time something was really different and that was the link ! It was pointing to a page on WordTracker ! (One of the most popular keyword research and SEO software websites)

    here is the link you can see it yourself:

    http://www.wordtracker.com/articles/system/cache/db_cache/www.bankofameria.com/repution/Online_BofA_Banking/UpdatingScreen.dostate=CA/updating.cfmpage=corp_bofacom/BankofAmricaScreen.dostate=CA/


    and there was a duplicated page from bankofamerica.com asking username and password, credit card number, and security questions and finally redirected me to bankofamerica's real homepage.
    See screen shots:

    For sure I didn't enter real information but the question is What is WORDTRACKER doing in this between ?
