OKay ladies -I need to let you know of a new scam. I have had the same checking account for 15 years. In March there was an ACH transfer to an "unknown to us" company for $1860. Got it back - but I had to close out the account and start a new one. And change over the automatic income and payments I use it for.
I don't write checks - use it for all the automatic stuff. Especially careful this past months. Well last week we had another ACH transfer to an "unknown to us" company for $1890. Called Fraud over weekend and went into bank first thing in morning - and another ACH transfer to an "unknown to us" company for $1800 was there (couldn't go through)
Bank is stymied. They haven't ever seen this. So we jumped through hoops, closed everthing down, used all new email and passwords, etc. I just feel so violated. I am accustomed to credit card compromise, but not my checking account. so I am saying all this to make you aware to check your online accounts weekly.
Rant over - now to look at some soothing, comfy fabric - aahhhh
