Piss-Off!
I'm really pissed off still. Yesterday evening when I was going through some old junk mail, I opened a piece addressed to me from an old credit card I use to use. Apparently I forgot to close the account when the balance was paid off and someone had used the account. This I couldn't figure out. How could someone use this account. I hadn't used it since before I was married...way before I was married and I had cut up the card into tiny little pieces.
Well, there was a charge of $1,300 and a late fee on the statement I received. Of course I was like "What the hell?!!!" With trembling hands I dialed the 1800 number on the statement. After about 8 different menus I finally got some drone who apparently did nothing and had to transfer me to the fraud department. Do they do this so that you get even more upset while you hold for another 10 mintues???!!!! So when I finally got Jessica** on the other line, I was very upset. There was probably steam coming from my ears. Jessica pulled up the account and the CHECKS there were written...yep, checks. Someone had gotten there hands on some of those stupid checks (that I usually shred upon receiveing) and decided to pay their own bills with them on my tab. What kind of person does this?!!! Anyways, Jessica didn't believe me when I said I didn't write them. One was written to another credit card company whom I don't even have an account with and the other was written to some chic Mrs. Steiner. That's probably who stole the money. Probably wrote the check out to herself. Freakin' scam artists. After stating about a bazillion times that I don't have an account and didn't know this person, they finally believed me and were going to close the account and reopen another...and clear the charges off of my account. I told them not to bother giving me a new account. I don't want a freakin' account with their company. My balance was zero, close the damn thing out for me.
To whomever did this too me (and I have a feeling it's whomever is living in apartment 22G now--Mrs. Steiner) "PISS-OFF YOU FREAKIN' DISHONEST, CREDIT CARD STEALIN', LOW LIFE SCUM!"
**Don't remember actual names

Yes, I have had a credit card misused by someone but I was lucky that the merchants contacted me by phone and asked if I had really ordered the items. My hat is off to Nike who contacted me about over $500 of merchandise supposedly purchased by me. And Amazon contacted me about a large Target purchase and asked me to verify that I had actually made another $500+ order, which I had not.
It is very disturbing to think that someone else is using your good name and accounts for their own evil purpose. It's a violation of one's own life.
The people who do this should be locked up and made to watch the Home Shopping Channel with no phone or computer in the room. They should be deprived of all ability to make any orders and made to see all the things they can't have because they didn't do things the honest way.
