re: #31 ObserverArt

I had to cancel my debit card too. I was in a hurry to pay my cable TV bill online last month. I typed in “Pay your Time Warner Bill Online” in to Google, saw the first link and went to pay my bill. I began the process and after I typed in my card info the next page took me to “set up and account” and I realized, wait…I already have an account. Then I realized I was on a site called Check Bill Pay. Arrgh!!!

A site where I have made some online purchases was hacked and they warned all their customers to watch out for bogus transactions. I called Bank of America and cancelled my DC.

Then I kept seeing transactions show up from some bookstore in Paris, France. I called BofA and reported it and cancelled my new DC.

Then I got yet another DC AND I AM STILL SEEING THESE BOGUS TRANSACTIONS FROM PARIS FRANCE so I called BofA and I’m like all WTF!!

They said oh yeah we refunded the bogus transactions BUT WE FORGOT TO CANCEL THE DC (this was 2 cancelled DC’s ago).

I have to let BofA know if I am going on vacation because they will cancel my card if I use it outside my area BUT THEY ALLOWED TRANSACTIONS FROM PARIS FUCKING FRANCE FOR AN ENTIRE YEAR.
