More details to this question:
My bank sent me a letter asking me how I spend my money, I've been with them over 5 years and I'm not doing anything different on my account. I'm not applying for any loans or something of that nature. My statements look the same as they did 3 years ago. Don't know what category this would fall under.

The patriot act requires more over sight on money than most people understand. If you are moving a great deal of money, this question might be in order.

Your bank can ask you anything they want, but you don't have to tell them anything. This could just be a marketing ploy on their part. Or, it could be a scam, not by your bank, but by some other "entity". Call your bank and ask them why they are asking and then decide whether to ignore it or not.

They should not need that information unless you have a contract with them that allows that or you have something new.

I am not very good at guessing why someone does something. My advice is to ask them why they want to know.

Sounds like a potential scam to me, take this to an attorney for review, or, at the lease, be very cautious.
