Citi Data Breach - 200,000+ account numbers exposed
« on: July 06, 2011, 07:15:03 PM »
It's old news, and I don't recall any extensive discussion about this on DDF.

I just found I was a victim (with one of my Citi cards), anyone else here a victim as well?

They're offering a measly 6 months of credit monitoring... Anyone manage to squeeze any hefty compensation out of them?

Think this qualifies as identity theft, so I can fill out and affidavit with the FTC and get free credit freezes?

Did they send a separate letter, or just info about the breech with the card.
