I was in Maui Dec 4-18. Dec 6, my credit card number was stolen and about $5000 of charges were processed. I'd just come home and put a big payment on my credit card (I know I spent some serious $$ in Maui :-)) and then went online to see what my cc balance was. That was when I discovered the fraudulent charges. I called my cc company and they cancelled my card. So there I was a week before Christmas with very little cash and NO credit card. Oh well . . .

I still haven't received my new CC due to it being the holidays, and I finally will get a paycheque next week. I think I'm down to about $80 in my bank account and $20 in my purse, but I've managed.

Too bad they can't somehow track down these thieves and make them scrub toilets or worse to pay for the money they have stolen.
