I took one of these emails to my branch of bank of America and was told by
the bank officer, when he looked at it, that they see these all the time and
to just delete the notice.

There are a lot of those scams going on.  It is my understanding that 
your bank, whatever institution you bank with, will never email, but 
will send snail mail or call if there is a question about anyone's 
account or credit card.  The best thing to do is to send the bogus 
email to the institution and then delete it immediately.
