Biggest Bridal Scare EVER!!!!

I got a phone call from my banks fraud protection and my entire account was wiped out by fraudulant charges at Tower Records and Dell Computers!!!

So I headed to the bank in tears... my wedding being 18 days away and needing to pay all the vendors.... and found out that Thankfully the bank froze the account immediately and al my money was safe in the account! Phewww!

I swear it was the biggest melt down and scare of my life!

How did it happen?

Supposedly there was numerous accounts of the same actions so the bank was aware but it must have been a glitch in their system b/c about 35 members had the same thing happen! So Everyone at Nassau Educators Federal Credit Union beware!

You are so lucky! Where do you bank? Our account was just wiped out and our bank did NOT catch it in time. Thank God it's not 18 days until our wedding or I might have dropped dead!

Re: Biggest Bridal Scare EVER!!!!

THE EXACT THING HAPPENED TO ME! NEFCU called to tell me they blocked my account from fraudulent orders through Dell and TowerRecords.com! I had to cancell my account that day and luckily NEFCU is doing something right because my money was never taken!!!!! But I have no Visa Debit until the end of the weelk. I can't believe it happened to you too!
