I had my tax return taken from my locked post box. I had to change all my bank accounts and contact the credit agencies because they had my ss number. The police were great. I had everything documented, but I was lucky nothing happened.....you did good girl to get everyone in line and let them know, but this is scary. Hope everything turns out in your favor :) Elizabeth </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/21496#post-452754 Fri, 25 Sep 2009 21:23:08 +0000 SylvesterMiasMomma 452754@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>Do any of the companies you did business with have an overseas branch? There was that big identity theft group that stole card numbers from TJ Maxx and three other retailers. They said it was the largest ever. Also we had someone rig the card swiping machine at a local Albertson's grocery store. They stole people's card numbers. Thankfully I don't shop there as I don't like the store. </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/21496#post-452752 Fri, 25 Sep 2009 20:59:17 +0000 Cheri 12/22 452752@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>i use my card a lot, but never have done any overseas purchasing or banking. these 8 charges originated outside of the USA, every day from 9/15 to 9/19, and then on 9/24. they must have been on vacation from the 20th to the 23rd !!! </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/21496#post-452747 Fri, 25 Sep 2009 20:33:43 +0000 SylvesterMiasMomma 452747@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>Oh Cheri, I am sorry you are going through this. How scary and how strange the bank didn't catch the eight fraudulent charges. Hope it all gets worked out. I suggest you pull out any receipts and think about any places online or in person where you recently used your debit card. </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/21496#post-452732 Fri, 25 Sep 2009 18:58:20 +0000 Cheri 12/22 452732@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>i just got home from the police station and have a case no. this is all i can do until the bank opens up monday morning. if they need the written report, i will have to wait until tuesday or wednesday to get it. </p> <p>so far now, i'll have to use paypal or &lt;gasp&gt; write a paper check until my new debit card arrives... </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/21496#post-452725 Fri, 25 Sep 2009 17:40:00 +0000 Cheri 12/22 452725@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>ok- i've notified the 3 credit bureaus... </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/21496#post-452722 Fri, 25 Sep 2009 17:29:24 +0000 Cheri 12/22 452722@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>no idea how they got my debit card number </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/21496#post-452721 Fri, 25 Sep 2009 17:27:18 +0000 Kitten Whisperer 452721@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>Good catch, Cheri! SMouse has an excellent suggestion that you contact all three credit reporting companies to flag your account in case the thief tries to get new credit in your name. I hope your money is credited back to your account ASAP. Do you have any idea of how the thief might have obtained your debit card information? </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/21496#post-452715 Fri, 25 Sep 2009 17:19:16 +0000 Cheri 12/22 452715@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>the bank told me this was very odd. they have a company that works for them to detect this kind of fraud. this other company never caught it - and it went thru 8 times !!! i'm the one who caught it. </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/21496#post-452712 Fri, 25 Sep 2009 17:14:37 +0000 spanky_mouse 452712@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p><a href="https://www.experian.com/consumer/cac/InvalidateSession.do?code=SECURITYALERT" rel="nofollow">https://www.experian.com/consumer/cac/InvalidateSession.do?code=SECURITYALERT</a></p> <p><a href="https://www.alerts.equifax.com/AutoFraud_Online/jsp/fraudAlert.jsp" rel="nofollow">https://www.alerts.equifax.com/AutoFraud_Online/jsp/fraudAlert.jsp</a></p> <p><a href="http://www.transunion.com/corporate/personal/fraudIdentityTheft/fraudPrevention/securityFreeze.page" rel="nofollow">http://www.transunion.com/corporate/personal/fraudIdentityTheft/fraudPrevention/securityFreeze.page</a> </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/21496#post-452710 Fri, 25 Sep 2009 17:11:40 +0000 spanky_mouse 452710@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>OOO go to all the credit companies online and let them know there is fraud on your bank account - tell them that they can not issue new credit in your name with out talking to you specifically first !! </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/21496#post-452709 Fri, 25 Sep 2009 17:09:58 +0000 spanky_mouse 452709@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>I know how you feel - its crazy to think your financial info has been obtained by some low life!! Consider yourself lucky as you caught if early in, my old roommate didnt have as much luck as her savings and checking were linked so once they drained her checking they had access to the savings too, latter we found out they had washed one of her paper checks and reprinted them using the original as a template!!!.....over $7000 in a weekend was taken!! It took her months to get the money back ! </p> <p>I am sorry your having to deal with this drama!! </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/21496#post-452689 Fri, 25 Sep 2009 16:11:37 +0000 TheKnittingNinja 452689@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>I dont use debit cards because the protections are not there as they are for credit cards. Each bank has a different policy and its just to much of a hassel. I only use papper checks cause I just dont trust banks </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/21496#post-452674 Fri, 25 Sep 2009 15:46:59 +0000 SoxsMom 452674@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>I am so sorry you are going through this Cheri! This is awful. I hope that they can trace the purchases and catch who did this. I am glad you are going to the police and can get this taken care of before anymore charges occur. </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/21496#post-452667 Fri, 25 Sep 2009 15:32:12 +0000 Leeny 452667@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>Good grief, an international ripoff ring!</p> <p>This is why I check all of my accounts on the internet several times a week. </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/21496#post-452665 Fri, 25 Sep 2009 15:29:38 +0000 Cheri 12/22 452665@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>2 of the charges were from Tunisia, a country in Africa... </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/21496#post-452657 Fri, 25 Sep 2009 15:21:56 +0000 Samye 452657@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>We had something kinda like this happen, this website kept charging our card after making one purchase, and there was no "fine print" to speak of. they had unknowingly to us signed us up for a subscription to get something every other week!! and it was like $30 an item!!

I was raised on them. My Dad has every one of their albums, even the few that were only released in the UK. I have posters of them as well. One with their signatures--very old. Hard to believe 2 are dead. George Harrison was my favorite--seemed to be the quiet one of the bunch. And lets not forget that he played a sitar! </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/17502/page/4#post-388345 Sat, 30 May 2009 05:10:51 +0000 AZDEBRA 5/27 & crew 388345@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>AV, me too and its hard to believe that it was on so very long ago. </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/17502/page/4#post-388344 Sat, 30 May 2009 05:07:50 +0000 AV 388344@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>.....warning, warning - Will Robinson!......

Never did like the Beatles and yes, still don't. Dad had the idea that the only music worth listening to was country, and that was all that was allowed in the house. I also remember when the death count from the VN war was flashed across the tv during the news :( </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/17502/page/4#post-388341 Sat, 30 May 2009 05:05:27 +0000 AV 388341@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>... oh yeah, the Beatles and Bob Dylan were very much a part of my "album" collection.....still have an "orange crate" full of old albums..... </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/17502/page/4#post-388337 Sat, 30 May 2009 04:58:07 +0000 jcat 388337@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>Tee hee at the flower children -- didn't any of you listen to Bob Dylan or -- gasp -- the Beatles? Beth, I think Young Girl was Gary Puckett and the Union Gap. I do still love the Night They Drove Old Dixie Down but I was only a babe in arms in the 60s -- well, that's my story anyway... </p>
