I got jacked

[Frank Booth]

Well it has happened. Some one charged about 900 dollars to my debit card. Cannot say it was stolen online, as i usually have the information saved on the sites i use it on. And i run bit defender anti virus, firewall, my router is secured, with firewall enabled. I have been using my card online for about 8 years, and nothing happened until today.

Call your debit card provider to file a report immediately.

All cards have been replaced. They called me, actually. The bank will give me the money back i think. But you want to know who it is so you can give them a good beat down.

Being a banker myself, I would highly recommend you getting a credit card for your online purchases. The reason being because if your debit card gets jacked like it did and then you are in need of cash at an ATM, your account may be overdrawn and you can't get any money. But I'm glad the bank is taking care of it, although they get to eat the $900 now .

I am hoping the retailer can give them an IP address to determine from where the order was placed. If it was near me i know they did not get the information online. They had to know my CVS/CVV to use it online. Why can't they call the retailer and tell them to recall the shipment and refund it back? After i get my money put back i will reevaluate my online use of cards.
