Citibank just issued a fraud alert regarding fraudsters posing as a Citibank employee by email, text or phone and requesting personal information which would allow them to access your account. Whenever Citibank calls you they will never ask for your account number, security word, PIN number or online user ID. If you receive a suspicious communication, do not respond. Rather, forward it to spoof@citi.com. Unfortunately, these fraud schemes usually focus on wealthy areas like Monterey, Pacific Grove and Pebble Beach. Always be on the alert!
