Staggeringly, Chase sent me an email I am required to click to receive money electronically from my Chase credit card balance.
An email. With a link. That I must click.
I checked the website and the app, then called Chase. Not the number in the email, of course, but a number I already knew. The person I talked to confirmed that the email was legitimate, but also said that clicking that link was the only way to receive the money electronically. Not via the website, not via the app, only by clicking a link in an email.
I am having serious trouble believing this to be true, but all the evidence seems to be pointing that way.
It’s like nobody at Chase has ever heard of spam email, as if no Chase employee has to take employer-mandated training annually that explains in great detail how you should never never never click links in emails and supply banking details.
I’ll wait for the paper check in two weeks. I will never click that link. Shame on Chase for sending it!
