I've been hit, too. This morning I checked my bank account on-line, something I haven't done in a few days due to wedding busy-ness. There are about ten various charges totalling around $300. Some are for weird monthly "subscriptions," there is a Gevalia coffee charge, and a case of wine from a wine club. I called the companies doing the charges and the weird thing is that the name and address that the coffe and wine and kids' books are being shipped to is mine. However, there is a strange email associated with the accounts.

It was a debit card associated with my checking account. I have already gone to my bank and cancelled the card. I will be refunded all the money within 24-48 hours. (Chase Bank rocks!)

So here's my question. What kind of email can I send to this yahoo scoundrel to get him/her to give up their name and/or address? I want to nail this a-hole!

That's spooky Ruby. It's almost like the guy is nearby and was going to snatch it off your porch.

Maybe it's my mail man or the UPS driver?

Do NOT email the thief.
Let the police/bank deal with it.

Ruby, any new neighbors?
stuff gets stolen quick of the porch. Someone stole a computer monitor off my porch around christmas, and I was at home.


I would really investigate this.

No new neighbors in my little 4-unit community foyer (except for Jon). But the lock is broken on the front entrance door and anyone could walk in here. We've been trying to get the condo association to fix it for a year. I am so glad that Jon lives here now or else I'd be freaking myself out every time I heard a sound in the hall.
