Citi-Bank Online Money Transfer ..

Hi, I am Vinod. I have given an ad on OLX for selling a DSLR Camera. I got an enquiry from MRS. Marian Alexandra that she wishes to gifted it to her Nephew in Nigeria and his name is Olamipo Paul. She just told to send the details and the cash needed in her personal email ID marialex1122@gmail.com. I asked her 1000 USD for Camera and as shipping. The very next moment I got a mail confirming that PAYMENT HAS BEEN CONFIRMED from CITI BANK (citi_bankonlinepayment@rediffmail.com) with so and so number and all details. I have checked all over the net for this official email ID and didnt get anything like that. She again asked me that anything more to sell. I told a Samsung S5 and Microsoft Lumia 540. She then asked How much I need. I felt Funny. I told 500 USD. She approved and replied me a good message that her Nephew need phones also for his work in Nigeria. I laughed a lot. But never send the Item.

Received letter from a Charles Hamlin stating he was a chief Executive at Citi Bank
London. Is that true - I want to verify?
