I recieved an email from a person imitating Citi Bank. They even had a link to a website. Be careful. If you see a bunch of misspelled words and jibb-jabba, it's them!!

Report them to your Attorney General and the FBI. They are investigating them. I have shown the persons email - in order to make the public aware of this email. I hope the Ripoff Report allows this email(jfire@earthlink.com) to be shown.

This is what the att. Generals office had to say:


This is a scam. Citibank has sent out a warning about it several months ago.
