The scammers don't waste any time in this one — they simply instruct you to send your personal details to someone at Citibank. Hmm, does Citibank really send messages from "london.com"? And do they want replies sent to a Yahoo address in Japan?
No matter, even if the addresses looked legitimate, this message wouldn't be. No bank would contact you about something like this via email. If you did respond, the next message would ask for your bank account details for a wire transfer. Using all this information, however, the money transfer would be out of your account, not into it. Don't respond, don't be fooled, by messages like this.
