FUDGEMONKEYS!

Someone got ahold of my debit card number, and had fun trying to buy stuff. Zappos was $222.99 - my bank authorized it (idiots!), but Zappos flagged it. (They were very nice!) IMdB hit me with $1 - and no one answers their phone, you have to email them. :sigh:

At least I monitor my account daily! :grrrrr:

Someone in Texas charged up $225 at a Walmart there just before Christmas... with Brian's card. Luckily they returned the $$ to us, but it was a bad week without Brian's card (I gave him mine to use, since I never leave the house).

Seems this is happening more and more often. I say they persecute, too - it's theft. That's a crime. Make them pay back the store AND pay the same amount to the gov't. Might make 'em think twice about stealing.

Yeah, but they won't - the lady at Zappos said that they'd just move on to the next card # they had stolen. :Sigh:

Wish they'd prosecute, too - this is the 3rd time I've had this happen. I can't figure out WHERE they're getting the # - I am careful at the gas station, we don't eat out that much (and when we do, it's at local mom-and-pop stores. The only thing I did different lately is I ordered a lesson plan from a new-to-me company...but I hate to think *they* stole it. (I usually don't buy from places that don't take Paypal. Yes, Paypal sucks.....but I feel like my info is safe there. :sigh:)

Sucks now, too - I have a few more things to order before we start our next History and Science books! :sigh: I can wait....I can wait.....we're not starting either one for a while....I can wait......(I don't do waiting well when it's not my fault! :lol:)
