However; I think many of us can empathize with you. Just very recently, my Brother-in-Law discovered that someone had apparently copied his Debit card, and was using it about 3,000 miles from his home. Fortunately, his bank realized it was very likely a fraudulent charge, and called my brother-in-Law at home, even though it was the middle of the night. Someone had at first attempted to charge gas on the card, but it was declined as the perpetrator did not know the correct zip code. However; Later either the same day or the next, whoever had the card, charged tones of things, and used every penny in the account, as well as all of his overdraft protection. Thanks to a bank who was actually on top of things, my dear Brother-in-Law, and my Sister only had to make a couple of short term loans to cover the losses, until the bank could verify the illegal acts, and replace the funds to their account. Of course, the current Debit Card was immediately cancelled, and a new one issued. So far, this whole thing has only taken a couple of weeks, instead of years as with many circumstances, such as when someone actually manages to get your Social Security number, name and date of birth, etc. Hang in, hdcs007 Your situation, of course is not a new one.
