Valued Citibank client
In our bank we value our clients and money, thats why we have to upgrade our database. The upgrade requires our costumers to update their debit/credit card information to avoid problems in our ATM services.
The reson to this upgrade is that we want to be well prepared for the smartcard upgrade on VISA creditcards. The smarcards reads a different type of encryption from our databases wich is more secure than the old type.
Please update your debit/credit card information as soon as possible.
