West Suburban Bank
 

I received a letter from, it says West Suburban Bank, even though i don't know, it's a non sense weird letter that does not look like the type of letter a bank will send. There's no intro, no names, no address, no signature, nada.

According to the letter, they collect data when you "open an account", "pay your bills", "use your credit or debit card" and also "from others, such as credit bureaus, affiliates or other companies".

What the heck is this? I'm not even in the US, don't have any US related business, except for affiliate accounts and Epassporte, which is not really US either.

Anybody have any info on this, has anybody received a letter from them?

This is the letter i got http://www.westsuburbanbank.com/PrivacyNotice.pdf

Maybe some used your information to open an account?

It seems it's something affiliates related, here's more links to it.

My guess.... someone transfered merchant accounts over to this bank and the bank sent you a privacy notification because they have your info now.

Could be it, makes sense. I'll give them a call this week and see exactly what's it about.
