WOT: Someone got my debit card number, and emptied my checking account Options

[nebreitling]

and the hits just keep coming..... i literally have NO time to mess with this crap.

wake up this morning and check my balance online, need to see if some checks had cleared, and hey -- what's that? i only have $35?

someone got ahold of my debit card #, home address, etc., and opened up a paypal account on friday. and bought and bought and bought until they could buy no more. $1,126.12 to be exact.

paypal is looking to make good on it, but meanwhile, i have about 5 checks out that might not clear (one to a member here). that should prove to be fun. I LOVE BEAURACRACY!


i hope there is a special place in hell for this thief.

thanks for the suggestions.

i'm hoping my bank will cover my written checks. we'll see when they open tomorrow. i'm thinking about not getting another debit card for this reason. it may be just atm and credit for me from now on.

You have been causing alot of trouble lately...

yeah, you know -- that's how it feels. this, plus i've still got the lunatic-power-tripping parking officer out on a mission to tow my 914*, all in the midst of a massive deadline on tuesday... wtf? what an absurd week.

*the latest with officer snowden is: he claims the car is covered by an "old tarp", instead of a "conventional car cover"; which is total bullshit. i bought the damn car cover at kragen. it's the same car cover he ripped when taking it off to inspect the car. so he knows damn well that it's a "conventional car cover". i really don't want to lawyer-up over this thing...
