Dear Jam,
Your Father should go to the real bank and change his password again if he hasn't already. He should also call his bank and inform them what has happened. Can you post a link to the Fake bank website? It can be listed and closed by our Website killing team. Any E-mails you can post along with a Copy of the Header would be helpful too. Please remove any of your Father's Real Life information for the Header or E-mail. By killing the Fake bank site we can save others from becoming victims.

Thank You,
