Odd Citibank Email
Anybody get an Email asking for your Email address, debit card and PIN number? It looks like a citibank address but it seems like a strange request in a general mailing. I don't even have a Citibank account.

1. That sounds a LOT like a scam
Whatever you do, DON'T reply to it.

2. If you'd like
You could send that information to me, along with your checking account number and routing number, and I can look into it for you. ;)

Kidding, of course. Scam. Beware.

4. absolute scam!
if you click on that link that looks like a legit citibank one, you will see that it leads you to some other site.

they're very tricky, these scam artists.

if you feel like going the extra mile, forward it to citibank. i bet they have a fraud protection mailbox somewhere

6. I got this one too
I called Citibank.
They said it was a scam.
I also forwarded to them regarding it.
The way you can tell it's a scam is that you don't actually have to enter your pin number. If you click on the submit, it takes you to a site anyway.
