I wonder if you'd actually ever get an interest payment at that rate or if you'd get an offer to redo it for ~2.5% a month from now. And JPM would enjoy the float for a month.

I'm pretty confident that when the FDIC takes over a bank there isn't a mad rush to update the bank's website.

They went to the trouble of putting J P Morgan's name on the site. Sure makes it look official.
