[AT] Fwd: Citibank Alerting Service, SCAM?

I have now received two emails purporting to be from Citibank. Since I have 
no account
with Citibank, I suspect that these are what is known as "pfishing" scams. 
I have checked
with Citibank to be sure and it appears that both are scams.
Go to the Citibank website and report any that you get and forward the 
emails complete
with all header info so they can prosecute these criminals. There is a link 
to Citibank's
email fraud page on the main page and you do not need to be a customer to 
report these.
