I think "Citibank aims at foot and lets loose with both barrels, then reloads and shoots a second time" would be a better title. This is a really scary example of what Perry once referred to as banks actively training users to become future victims of phishing attacks. What's even worse is that Citibank uses such a profusion of marketing-driven vaguely bank-related domain names (e.g. accountonline.com, although this now seems to have been shut down) that the email could just as easily have directed users to <random bank-sounding name>.com without raising too much suspicion. Any half-awake phisher will immediately send out an identical email sending people to some other vaguely correct-looking URL and asking for the same information.
