I Got Jacked Over the Weekend...........

So I went to the ATM on Friday to get some cash out but the machine wouldn't allow me.... after going to another ATM and getting the same result, I decided to call my bank to see what the issue might be.

After 30 minutes of being on the phone with the fraud dept., I find out that somebody took out $2,000 out of my account from various ATM's in the duration of 4 days ($500 a day) in locations that I have never used. I never lost my check card and have never left my wallet with anyone. After speaking to a friend, I was told that some people can create your Debit card after simply swiping it and entering your pin code at a local store. Luckily the bank has temporarily reissued the money to me until the case is finalized.

Stay away from swiping your debit card folks - I have heard of stories like these but I would have never thought in a million years that this would happen to me.
