I received 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 gibberish, it's them!
Report them to your Attorney General and the FBI, which are investigating them. I have shown the email in order to make the public aware of it. The sender's address was [email protected], and I hope the complaint allows it to be shown.
This is what the Attorney General's office had to say: "This is a scam. Citibank has sent out a warning about it several months ago."
On May 12, 2004, I sent the Attorney General's office a message saying that some crook is trying to trick me into giving out my bank account information, and I pasted in the message I received. I noted that the crook can't even spell right. The message read:
