Nonsense, Citibank hackers were caught, so you should re-check before sending out information such as this. You may be 
confused since at the time it was not published and the hoopla surrounded Citibank, that another major bank was 
similarly intruded upon.

Bob, I'm familiar with that hack.  For a number of reasons that I cannot relate to you, as they are additional controls 
you or a customer will not see, that won't happen to us.  The Citi hack was a Netware spoof and caused the exposure to 
be closed.  Again, if you have any specific infomation regarding how you would use the info presented to gain 
advantage, please let me know.

Within the past one to two three years, CitiBank was relieved of a large
amount of money electronically by Russian crackers.  I believe the total
was about US$10,000,000.  The money was not recovered and the crackers
were not identified or caught.
