Recently,
consumers have
reported receiving
fraudulent emails
that appear to
be from Citibank,
but which are,
in fact, sent
by imposters.
Fraudulent emails
typically i
nclude
attachments,
request personal
information or
both. The fraudulent
email may provide
a web link that
connects to a
Citibank look-alike
site. When such
emails are sent
in our name,
Citibank works
aggressively
with law enforcement
agencies
to investigate
them. We kindly
would like to
remind you that
Citibank does
not ask customers
to provide sensitive
information in
this way.
You
should not reply
to such emails.
Be
very suspicious
of any business
or person who
asks for your
password, social
security number,
or other highly
sensitive information.
If you have responded
to one of the
emails giving
personal information,
please contact
CitiPhone
service as soon
as possible on
16644.
These may appear
to come from
a trusted business
or friend, but
actually are
designed to trick
you into downloading
a
virus or jumping
to a fraudulent
website and disclosing
sensitive information.
