If your gonna use "rich text" then at least learn how to use it!
Personally I would vote with my dollars and go to some other financial
institution. Additionally I would write a letter (Remember letters?
Those paper things...) to the responsible higher ups explaining to them
exactly why I would no longer do business with Citibank - they, like the
Catholic church for that matter, cover up and do not expose illegal
activities. Such behavior should not be tolerated, IMHO.
Of course I'm sure that most shee^h^h^h^h people here would not complain
and just go along with it. This is exactly why this sort of crap happens
and exactly why large companies like Citibank don't care anymore -
because the people don't care enough to make a statement about it as
unacceptable behavior. Like the scene in /Animal House/ instead you bend
over and recite "Thank you sir can I have another...".

Personally this would have me very concerned. When "security has been
compromised" to me it says that this company's security and procedures
are lax. This doesn't happen to companies if they pay attention to and
value security of their customers sensitive data like credit card
information. IOW they screwed up big time and the chances are pretty
high that such a thing can happen again. As such I would definitely be
thinking twice before continuing a financial relationship with them.<br>
