What a way to start the day!

I'd like to start this Saturday morning with a hearty "Fuck you!" to the lowlife who used my credit card number and expiration date to go on a shopping spree on Tuesday to the tune of nearly $750: $20 at BarBQ Barn in Plano, $500 at Target in Allen, and $225 at Petco in Allen! I hope you enjoy your ill-gotten gains, because karma's a bitch! And to BarBQ Barn, Target and Petco, another "Fuck you!" for accepting the charges without the card being present!

I've already talked to Citibank and they have put a security close on the account and will be sending me a new card via UPS 2-Day (I told them about leaving for Canada on Thursday). Thank goodness I filled up the gas tank yesterday! And, best of all, I won't be responsible for any of the fraudulent charges.

On to better news: going to a Browncoat shindig, followed by seeing Serenity again. (4th time for me)

Oh my god, Joe!!! :-O Very glad you're you won't be responsible for the charges. These S.O.B. lowlives deserve all the karma they've got coming to them.

Something similar happened to my bro a few months ago. Someone (god knows how) got his credit card number and made several online purchases to the tune of several hundred dollars US! Thankfully things got straightened out right quick!
I only hope the scum get their just deserts.

What sucks about mine was that the purchases were made at the stores. So they went to BarBQ Barn, made a small charge (to not arouse suspicion), and when they found that it was a good number, they went to town.
