Hackers

Yesterday, someone cleaned out our checking account. Oh, they were nice enough to leave $11, because, you know, they were being considerate.

After I called the bank to assure them I did not authorize a triple digit- nearing quadruple digits-transaction to a cell phone company, I was informed it would be 5 to 7 days before the investigation was complete and then we would get our money back.

I was also informed my debit card was inactivated and not to use it until I get a new one. You know, because I could go WILD with the $11 we have left.

Also yesterday, my computer started acting weird. We have this new TERRIBLE phone and internet provider due to moving to the sticks, so at first I thought it was them. But now, I'm fairly certain it's not.

We have all the protection: anti-virus, anti-spyware, firewall. The next step is to enlist a sharp shooter. I mean, seriously, what's a family to do?

So it may be a few days before I post anything, as I'm turning my computer over to someone I trust NOT to steal all our information and find a solution for us.
