Heavy Lifting

 

Between the mass shootings yesterday (Illinois (2 different ones), Virginia, Missouri, California, Massachusetts ~ total 8 dead, 54 injured) which totally screwed up an already down day, and the fact that we discovered someone has used my SS# to open 3 different accounts with BofA.... Well, my day is going to be filled with filing reports.


Have to say, I'm grateful to have LifeLock doing much of the heavy lifting but there are still a lot of forms to fill out.


Then driving to a Notary.



Then scanning and uploading everything to a LifeLock case portal.

Here's hoping there will still be some pool time when I'm done.






The ironic part: It was a scam sweepstakes phone call that tipped me off. Otherwise, who knows how long this would've gone unnoticed.

Had a great Holiday weekend visiting friends. We did some skinny dipping and chunky dunking in their pool, weather was perfect. Did ribs and burgers on the grill and lots of other picnic foods. A group game of Trivial Pursuit with three teams filled the afternoon. The lightening bugs lite our field in the evening announcing a bug orgy in progress. It was a perfect old fashion 4th of July with friends.....Sorry to hear about your problem with your private information. Hope it can be cleared up with out any loss. Had a great time, but there's no place like home.

Oh noooo
Fuckers. Our info is constantly in danger, right? Scammers do NOT sleep.
Good luck! Thank goodness you got to intervene before it was too late.

XOXO

It's just getting crazy how they get people's info. And friends left with how guarded I am with my credit and debt cards.

I hope you can find the solutions and outcome you need and the issues get resolved.

And yet you don't talk about the number of suicides by firearm. Which means that an American is 30 times more likely to die from a gunshot than a Frenchman.

Hugs and bisous, my darlings Jean and Pat.
Have a great day.

Ouch!

I subscribe to the TransUnion credit report, and through them, have my credit access locked. No one can open anything unless I unlock it. All three credit bureaus offer that service, but TU was the least expensive ($10 a month). My want to consider that going forward!

I had one to many attacks on my credit. None since going that route.

wow, that sucks, and not in a good way. I hope it all turns out well sooner rather than later.

Love the guy getting tiny bubbles on his ass...
And the beard reclining next to the pool with his cock draped over his thigh!

Oh No. I just got a call left saying my credit card was used to charge tickets and to call the number to either accept or deny the charge. No charges, and no I didn't call. Ugh. Gas must be getting really high.
Hugs and bisous,

Glad you caught the issue as soon as you did. I need to do more to protect my accounts. Please keep us all posted on how that all gets resolved.

Sorry you got hacked. My card was 'adopted' by someone two months ago. I check my balance on line constantly and caught it right away. Thieves. They are everywhere. What a pain to go through all you have to just to prove who you are... good luck, dear. Hope you got back to the pool in good time!

The actual reason for so many shootings is simple: The cops could handle these shootings, but they won't. For the same reason you never see Miley Cyrus and Hannah Montana together.

@ Jean - It's a continuing saga here. Call after call with nonsense offers, sweepstakes, and bogus charges to be "confirmed." Hah! We ain't that stupid. It will be interesting to find out how these people were able to use my info to open accounts. Hugs and bisous.

@ Rad - all three credit places have now been locked down. Nothing can happen without me knowing about it.

whkattk said...

@ Upton - I keep a close watch on our accounts, too - daily. Nothing missing, no bogus charges. Thank goodness.

SickoRicko said...

Oh no! I'm so sorry that happened!

As a few have said, contact all three credit bureaus to freeze your credit. It is free from all the credit bureaus, free. Keep the unlock codes in a safe place should you need them to apply for a loan or new credit card. You can open your credit for the length of time you need or specifically to the creditor offering you a loan, then it closes again.
SS numbers are hacked and traded constantly and trying to prove that the fake credit applications and or loans were not done by you is a heavy burden that will take much time, effort and cause a great deal of stress all the while ruining your credit score!
Another tip...FORGET debit cards, they are easy keys to get to your savings or checking account and once drained, you are out of luck. Stick with credit cards. They offer greater protection against fraud and theft.
Lastly, if the poor soul subscribed to "lifelock" and got credit scammed, what good is that service?
Do it yourself and it is free.

@ Anon - That's the weird thing, nothing has been done to affect my credit scores. I can say LifeLock is worth it. I got nowhere with Bank of America, just shuffled from one department and representative to another. Hours and hours on hold with not a single bit of help or resolution - only a confirmation that, yep, someone had used my SS#. Once LifeLock got B of A on the line, things got moving. Plus, I'm covered up to $1M if anything should actually go south.
