Mad_as_Hell is on a distinguished road
I know I'll get the money back - it's the principle. It's the inconveinience and life disruption and being put into a compromising position by some piece of sh*t on the other side of the planet that will in all likelyhood continue to screw people care-free until they get tired of doing it.... The card they got was my check card from a small local bank - and I'm not Bill Gates - these thieves left me with about $200 in my account - it will take my local bank around two weeks to get the money back to me - IF I'M LUCKY - I have to go to the bank to get pocket money - or find places that will take checks - and I STILL DON"T KNOW HOW THEY GOT MY NUMBER! SO I feel like I can't protect myself from this happening again - I have firewalls up, McAffee's full version and Spyware Doctor all installed and constantly running and they STILL got my card number. I scan my computer three times a week and update frequently. I'm just saying that it will be a long time, posssibly NEVER, before I type my credit card number in again - goodbye online shopping.
