[QUOTE=ncdecolover;7219012]The scammers are skilled enough that their *application* form even includes an AA Advantage number though to our knowledge, not one my husband's ever had! BTW--the web page address for submitting an application for the so-called AmEx card is something called
www.applynow.citicards.com, which if you go there ... is nowhere!

For educational purpose, the link you posted, is a 100% legit Citicards link.
On top of that, AFTER you click on the "scammy" link, when you look at the URL (the address block), the ACTUAL wordings said :
https://www.accountonline.com/ACQ/Ap...eId=cb&LANG=EN
https, again, for educational purpose, it is a secured site - all legit banks/credit cards/what have you, that require you to input your valuable personal data, would display
https, instead of just http. Remember this so you would not be actually scammed next time.
as others have pointed out, accountonline.com has been citicards site for filling out applications, for as long as I remember - that is at least 4 or even 5 years old.
BTW, since WHEN, you have applied a Citicard?! The site to apply Citicards is exactly the site that "scammy" link sent you to.
Next time before you think you are doing some good by posting such screaming post, ask around first - as you obviously have very little knowledge about what a secured site is, let alone you are at least one year or more BEHIND about Citi AMEX AAdvantage being available.
