Subject: Re: AND NOW: TUESDAY! by Ultraman on 2022/2/15 14:54:50 Freedom.... so taken for granted.... those truckers are getting everyone's attention that is a fact.... Well we got hacked yesterday..... It's my fault it was a very real looking email and by the time I got into it and finally figured out it was a scam I had to slam down the computer and called down to put a hold on our accounts. Eventually ended up cancelling all our accounts and got money transferred over into new accounts...... It was a Best Buy scam telling me they took out of my checking account for a service I had dropped a year ago. So I followed the instructions on how to get the money back and that is when things started to get weird.... eventually I could tell they were on my computer and since I had been on our online banking and had it minimized on the screen I did not want to take the chance they got into that. Mama never said I was the brightest bulb in the bunch...... I was so intent on getting that money back I did not even consider a scam..... it was pretty slick the way they set it up...... when I checked my bank account there had never been any money taken out for the Best Buy program...... I called Best Buy to verify that it was not them and they said it was not and I should report the scam to Abuse @ Best Buy . com there must be a lot of BB scams out there....... today I will spend time getting all things switched over to our new checking account. I also did away with the online banking ...... I think it's time to go dark........ back to getting in a bill and writing a check for it..... instead of this autopay stuff........ it's a dangerous world out there Guru's........ don't take any wooden nickels..... |
