I'm so freaked out and I have no one to talk to. Just a minute ago I got a call from my credit union's fraud prevention people, and found out that someone half way across the country made a counterfeit Visa with my magnetic strip on it. They spent several hundred dollars just today, at Radio Shack and Texaco and some other crap. The fraud prevention person told me the times of the transactions, and they occurred while I was taking a NAP!!!
I hate this violated feeling. The fraud prevention rep said that I won't have to pay for those charges because I can file a dispute, and a block has been put on my card so that nothing else can be charged to it.
I work so hard for my money and some lazy bum is trying to steal it from me. I won't 100% believe that I don't have to pay for the fradulent charges until my credit union officially tells me so after I file my dispute.
I hate having no support to help me when something bad happens to me.
