I was actually thinking something similar. The bank isn't the one that made you click on that link to go to the phishing site, and they aren't the ones that entered in the personal information for the crook to access the account and take your information.

Its really a simple matter of using enough common sense to figure out that maybe I should contact the bank to make sure that something actually happened. Another clue is that most banks also send out snailmail as well, at least everyone that I've ever been with has.

In today's world, there is no excuse in not having enough sense to question anything you receive in an email. Even if its from a friend, you're stupid to not scan the email and to have some form of spam filter up to protect you from possible malicious email.
