some ****** charged up $3000 on one of my credit cards that was EXPIRED already!!! i got a new credit card to replace the expired one but i never activated it. i'm actually really pissed off at my credit card company (citibank) that they allow people to actually use the card for anything and everything but in person purchase charges without activating the damn card.. mutha******. well, they already took care of the fraudulent charges already and otherwise my account is clean. gotta go to the bank now to close my checking account and open a new one as a precautionary measure just in case this scumbag has any other info of mine then go file a police report tomorrow after i receive all the documentation on the charges. fucking shit.

Yes, and don't let your credit card company fuck you; youare only responsible for 50 dollars of that charged amount.

been there. it stucks. They were pretty smart for me. They got a copy of my debit card and pin number. They went to an ATM and ADDED a deposit of $1800, $3000, and $2500. Of course they were stolen checks, but the ATM gave the account the full amount, even though the cash didn't clear. Then they went on a shopping spree. I got all my money back, but man it was a crappy 2 weeks. the back closed my account, WITH ALL MY LEGIT MONEY TOO! Luckily i had a deposit from something else going to my saving account the next day. that was just by luck. For one day i was pennyless. I never carry cash so i would have been flat broke if i didn't get it.

The guy who did it probably bought 3,000 of those cancer bracelets. He probably got the green ones...you know, the one for butt cancer.
