Check carefully

Lots of fraud going on right now
I just got through spending a good bit of
the morning with a representative trying
to straighten out some fraud.
Somebody about 4 states over took
all but 70 cents from me. The
representative said that they've
already tried another time to see
if there was anything else to steal.
Rep says they're aware of it, and it's
more widespread than I knew.
Most any kind of account is being dipped
right now, and they're trying to get a
handle on it. The city computer system
is still not back yet from the ransomware
hit from like 5-6 months ago

Good idea to carefully check all your
bills and statements and such for
fraudulent charges and unauthorized
use.

Shame that we're afraid to punish
people that do wrong

People can suck. Before my mother passed, someone called her (a scammer), and tricked her into giving her bank account number. Just by luck my sister spoke to her (within minutes) and found this out. By the time my sister called the bank these people had made several small successful transactions, to test it. They were on the verge of taking every dime my mom had. The account was locked before it happened. Should be a killing offense.
