Warning of an Email Scam
-
Aug 13, 2004 22:50
This is what I received in my email today. And yes, this is how it actually came, as a picture instead of a typed response. Below it was this link that I did not click on and I suggest you don' t either. http://rds.yahoo.com/*%68%74%74%70%3a%2f%2f%77%77%77%2e %67%6f%6f%67%6c%65%2emu%2f%75%72%6c%3f%71%3d%68%74%74%70 %253a%252f%252fxqqkcpefe.com*23896%252E%2564%2561%252E%2572 %2575%252F This is that same link after you hit reply. ....#00119;w#00119;.c#00105;t#00105;ba#00110;k.c#00111;m/ ?scNYnHK5sw3aGqyrMX5A2di38810g7dLqUzR0c4n086Lo6KbZSd32d72p What made it obvious to me is that I' m not a Citibank member at all. In fact I' ve never been to Citibank. So keep an eye out for such crap emails like this.

wow, what an obvious scam too not only would a bank ever have a customer email any personal information regarding their account, but it is an image! It' s obvious that they don' t want to be caught by character searches so they used an image with text BWAHAHA

I received a similar emailing quite some time ago. As I am not (or have ever been) a CitiBank member, it was obvious to me that it was a scam. I immediately deleted the emailing. Excellent heads-up, lotusson!
