Here are a couple phishing scams received targeting Citizens Bank customers.
Note that the deactivated url in the message below was actually linking to http://ebanking-services.citizensbanking.com.file-id011.com/ The part after .com was the same.
The subject lines on Citizens banking phishing scams that I’ve received so far have been:

This one almost slipped by me. The url seemed legit. I looked up the company name and everything seemed to match. My mind must be starting to go because I didn’t notice that the email linked to a site ending in .us and the real company’s url ends in .com
After some searching on the ‘net, it appears that this one is just one of those old fraudulent check cashing scams or Western Union money scams. One where they will “overpay” you and request you wire them the balance back. By the time the check you received bounces, the money you wired is long gone.
As always, be careful and investigate.
