This happened to me a year or so ago. The bank replaced the money pretty quick but it was still a pain. Luckily I didn't have any checks bounce, that's the big downfall of the check card. It was most likely a local merchant that stole the number instead of some online transaction.

Have you seen where some credit card companies will give you temporary numbers to use online for just 1 or 2 transactions? I expect to see more of this in the future along with some kind of rolling code that gets written back on your credit card each time it's swiped.

Anyway, sorry about the hassle; and on a holiday weekend too, bummer (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/sad.gif)
