Christians warn us about the anti-christ for 2,000 years, and when he shows up, they buy a bible from him.

Why do people fall for this shit? because they dont read their stupid agreements and security documents they get with their accounts. I have never had anybody ask me for my account PIN, and the letter that came with the pin when the card was new explicitly told me the bank would never ask for it.

Besides with all the phishing and scamming out there, whenever the bank calls I ask for a case number and agents name, then hang up and call them. Takes an extra 45 seconds and my account has never been compromised.
