Citibank Email Database compromised?

Important Information for our Customers

Recently, Citi was notified of a system breach at Epsilon, a third-party vendor that provides marketing services to a number of companies, including Citi. The information obtained was limited to customer name and email addresses of some credit card customers. No account information or other information was compromised.

Because e-mail addresses can be used for “phishing” attacks, we want to remind our customers that Citi uses an Email Security Zone in all our email to help them recognize that the email was sent by us. Customers should check the Email Security Zone to verify that email they have received is from Citi® and reduce the risk of personal information being “phished.” More information about phishing is available here: https://creditcards.citi.com/site-security/.

If you have any questions or concerns about emails that you may receive that look suspicious, we encourage you to contact Citi Customer Service at the phone number on the back of your card.
