Citibank sucks at security. I was just on the phone with a friend, when a call from 415-861-5594 shows up on my caller ID. When I finished speaking with my friend, I called back the other caller. A guy answers and says "Citibank". I say "I'm returning your call". He says "Can you give me your social security number so I can look you up?"

Are you serious?

How do I know this is really Citibank? I can't believe how stupid these guys are with security. They actually place calls to people from a number other than the one on the back of my card, and when I call back, they expect me to give them my social security number?

I smell a scam coming. Bad guys who read my blog-- please do not start placing phone calls from your fake Skype accounts claiming to be Citibank, then asking people for their social security number when they call you back. ¶3:44 PM; digg
