Flagstar Bank Phishing Email

This email appears to from Flagstar Bank, but after a quick look, it is fairly apparent that it is nothing more than a Phishing email. A couple of points on this message:

  • The second sentance doesn't read right, it appears to be missing a word.
  • The third sentance is not constructed right and again doesn't read correctly.

Here is an image of the email I received. You can click on the thumbnail below to see a larger version of the image:
