Update:
I also had 8 cc opened BUT those are cleared (so i was told)
The orders are in England. Go figure. So they can't be charged for grand larsany...(however you spell it)
As of now I am keeping cool. Thank you for the prayers, I think they gave me strength today (Although i was yelled at by a police officier for crying and he said 'how do i know your not the one making these purchases'..)
Oh well...

Thanks again!

So, I get online and see that my bank account is cleared. Yes, cleared. Someone used my debit card number on 42 large transactions (and I am talking like, 2,000-10,000 dollars.

I called and cancelled the account but I was told 100 different things and now find out I may not get my money back because I was not enrolled in a 'Identity theft program' through my bank. Are you serious?

So, I now have not a dollar to my name until my next paycheck and fh and I unless I get my money back, will not have the money for a wedding for next year...

Oh and did I mention now I may have to cancel traveling to WDW because I refuse to borrow money?

So please, just keep my in your prayers tonight because I really need strength ...

I'm so sorry to hear that this happened. I have to tell you, though, the same exact thing happened to me last year. I was away on vacation in Pennsylvanica and I came back to find my account cleared. Someone recreated my bank card and actually withdrew money from several ATMs in NYC. I wasn't enrolled in Anti-Theft programs, but got every single dollar back. Best of luck....I hope they are able to do this for you.

The nerve of that police officer. I agree with WinterGrl09 on the cop being a @ss.

I still can't believe that this happened. This makes me want to go out and buy a shredder. I'm so paranoid when I throw out bills and stuff with my info on it. This totally confirms that. I'm so sorry I hope it gets resolved.
