A suspicious email blast from Synchrony Bank raised concerns on Monday about possible fraudulent activity. One email said a trial deposit had been made to an Amazoncredit-builder account. Synchrony Financial said on Monday it was investigating the cause of a notification sent erroneously to some customers regarding the financial services company's co-branded card with Amazon.com Inc.

I, along with many others received a suspicious email on Monday, Nov. 25, 2019, supposedly from Synchrony Bank with the subject line: “A Trial Deposit Has Been Successfully Made to Your AMAZON CREDITBUILDER.”
I received an email from Synchrony Bank with this in the subject line and nothing in the email. Just this in the subject line: A Trial Deposit Has Been Successfully Made to Your AMAZON CREDITBUILDER Has anyone seen th&hellip. Mobile check deposit via the Synchrony Bank mobile app. Sign into the app, tap the Deposit tab, select your account and take a picture of the check on your mobile device or tablet. The amount of a mobile check that you can deposit is currently limited to $10,000 USD per account.
I haven’t signed up with Amazon Credit Builder, and I’m not a Synchrony Bank customer unless they privately run another company’s credit card service that I’m not aware of.
Amazon said it’s aware of the issue.
“Amazon is aware of a notification that was distributed by Synchrony in error to some customers,” an Amazon spokesperson told Business Insider. “They are investigating the root cause. Additional inquiries can be sent to Synchrony.”
However, many people, including me, who are not Synchrony customers, want to know why their names were even in Synchrony’s customer database. The email I received has me very concerned about the potential of fraud and identity theft. I didn’t sign up for anything new, and an email that appears to be from a bank referencing trial deposits makes me very nervous.
When I went to Synchrony Bank’s website, it had a banner that read as follows:
“Alert: We apologize for any confusion an unplanned email from Synchrony may have caused today. No action needs to be taken at this time.”
When I clicked the banner, it then read, “Synchrony is currently investigating an unplanned customer notification that is affecting some consumers. We apologize for any confusion; you do not need to take any action at this time.”
Hmmm?
That’s what they say today, but what kind of breach might I be hearing about tomorrow?
