i get those types of emails with citibank at least 2x a month - mine have spelling errors though lol

I was afraid to click on the link.
I'm always cautious that my security isn't the best
it could be.

It's probably a phishing email. I get those too. Never click on the link in those emails.

These bastages are getting VERY good-- I dabble on Ebay {selling} and I just received an email from someone last night that was convincing enough for me {and I'm HIGHLY skeptical} to actually click on the first link. They had a legitimate question about a current item I have for sale which makes it even more scary. To top it off, I checked with Ebay and this "user" did have an account last year... Anyway, if it wasn't for my browser {firefox} going nuts telling me the Url didn't match the source I might not have caught it soon enough. I never would've given any pertinent info, but, the fact that I didn't scan the url to the actual link {which I normally do anyway} pisses me off that I almost got complacent cause it was done so well...
