Dear Ted, Peter and Prof. Farber,
Random, dumb luck. Spam enough people and someone will have an
account with them.

I forwarded this to my son David who lives in Santa Barbara. Here
is his answer:
"I actually got one of these e-mails because we have our
mortgage with SBB&T. At first, I thought it was real
because it was in the 805 area code (Santa Barbara).
I called and it asked for an account number. I didn't
give it, wanting to talk to someone. Since I didn't
enter anything, the thing hung up on me. I was going to
call the *real* SBB&T number, but decided it was a hoax
and I wasn't going to waste my time.
I wonder how they got hold of the SBB&T customer list?"
Now that's a good question. Anyone know the answer?
