Dear BB&T customer,

We recently reviewed your account, and suspect that your BB&T Internet
Banking account may have been accessed by an unauthorized third party.
Protecting the security of your account and of the BB&T network is our
primary concern. Therefore, as a preventative measure, we have
temporarily limited access to sensitive account features.

To restore your account access, please take the following steps to
ensure that your account has not been compromised:

1. Login to your BB&T Internet Banking account. In case you are not
enrolled for Internet Banking, you will have to use your Social
Security Number as both your Personal ID and Password and fill in all
the required information, including your name and your account number.

2. Review your recent account history for any unauthorized
withdrawals or deposits, and check your account profile to make sure
not changes have been made. If any unauthorized activity has taken
place on your account, report this to BB&T staff immediately.

We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, and appreciate your
assistance in helping us maintain the integrity of the entire BB&T
system. Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter.




No 220-pound thug can threaten the well-being or dignity of a 110-pound
woman who has two pounds of iron to even things out. Is that evil?
Is that wrong? People who object to weapons aren't abolishing violence,
they're begging for the rule of brute force, when the biggest, strongest
animals among men were always automatically "right". Guns end that,
and social democracy is a hollow farce without an armed populace to make
it work.
