Ekspertvurdering
The 1‑800‑950‑5114 line is most often a scam that pretends to be Citi’s fraud or credit‑card department. Callers typically ask for your credit‑card number, Social Security number, or other personal data, and the scripts sound like a legit security check. Even if a few users swear they were actually helped, the overwhelming evidence points to spoofed calls that try to harvest info. If you get a call from this number, let it go to voicemail, verify the request on the official number printed on your card, and never give out sensitive details. When in doubt, hang up and call Citi directly.
