It doesn't matter if you receive posts from a bank, in your daily or weekly public announcement services as an announcement. But it does matter of course, if the announcement is addressed to you personally with your full name and postal address!
People accept only personal-sent announcements from those who know and after having them requested this service from those advertisers, by replying to a coupon, or any form else.
To receive an email from a bank that you don't have anything to do with it, is "worst scam"!
The following email I've received from a bank that I don't know and I've no any account in it, will give you the picture about how this scam is working, why and from where it has been arrived.
Before getting to the email here's a button logo from that email

Well, isn't it amazing to receive such emails from those banks while you don't have accounts in them?

Scam from Banks! Incredible!

Using OPEC Membership To Spam....!
I've no doubt this has nothing to do with OPEC. But you should take care of such claims. The following spam has arrived to my mail box with these details:
Return-Path: omriomri @ firstisrael. org .il
Delivered-To: My email address
Received: (qmail 8258 invoked from network); 1 Sep 2005 19:55:25 -0000
Received: from apache by disny. fwd .co. il with local (Exim 4.52)
Subject: PROJECT OFFER FROM OIL & GAS LTD
From: Mr.Femi Adeyomi femiadeyomi001 @ i12. com
X-Priority: 1 (Highest)
CC:
X-Mailer: RLSP Mailer
Message-Id: E1EAv46- 0006xO-4L @ disny .fwd .co . il
The sender used one of my domain addresses before I've changed them, or he might have some in-direct relations with one of my hosts, through which he has an access to know some details about those email addresses before I've changed them.
The message also is well written and the sender represents himself and his company membership in OPEC wisely in the first paragraph.
But you need to be more wise and never reply to such scam. Take any email like this into your spam folder. Block and report it.
