Ugh.
Congratulate me, everyone. As I discovered after the ATM spit my bank card back at me tonight, I am the latest casualty in the identity theft epidemic. Apparently someone got hold of my bank card number and has been redecorating his or her home, possibly calling foreign countries (I’m not sure exactly what they were doing to generate a nearly $300 wireless bill) and attempting to purchase plane tickets. But hey, guys, thanks for the consideration in going with a discount ticket broker – I appreciate your thriftiness in attempting to make my money stretch as far as possible.
I’m sure this will be a fun little mess to untangle.

I would offer my congratulations but I need them for myself:( I got the letter yesterday from my bank informing that my information was among some that had been hacked. At least they let me know and warned me to watch my account activity closely.
sigh
Good luck in this battle….we’re all going to need it.

See, I had the opposite problem. The ATM kept my card. You win in the suckiness quotient though.

Sorry, I had to call my friend overseas. As for the furniture, don’t worry, I put a little Tvini doll on the recliner as a daily reminder of thanks.
So…
Thanks!

Nope, wasn’t me. I only use stolen bank cards to buy porn and marital aids.

I soooo know exactly how you feel. They stole mine about four years ago and spent about $900 in one day on the UK version of Amazon and then bought a domain in Venezuala or some such.
However I was lucky since my account had identity theft insurance. It was an absolute nightmare and a huge headache. But after a week or so of faxing signatures to the appropriate authorities I was not held responsible for the fraudulant purchases. Of course, the fact that all of the charges were generated on the other side of the Atlantic and I had proof I hadn’t been out of Florida for waaay longer than I’d had that account, it was kind of easy to convince them which charges weren’t mine.
Oi but that was an awful week. My empathy level has risen dramatically, I think I’ll go have a drink for you. ::big hugs::
