so ya. my wife and i have 3 checking accounts at the same bank. we have 6 bank cards and they all look the same..fml!! (2 cards for each account). my wife is pretty good with keeping all the records on them and depositing/tranfering money to each card as we see fit. we number the cards so we don't get confused as they all look exactly alike. here were it gets weird. my bussiness card declined for a gas purchase. their should be plenty of money in their. called the wife and she said she took care of it.. it declined 3 more times that week. we tranfered the money out to another account thinking the card expired a month early. my wife used her card from the other account and it declined as well, but she never said anything. thought she used the wrong card. now 3 weeks goes by. we have been using the money from our 3rd checking account. today we go to get $10 in gas and ALL 3 CARDS DECLINE!! we check our online banking and everything is fine. we call the bank and they say all is good. card still declines. we call the bank again and they inform us that the cards were cancelled becouse somebody from turkey tried to wire $800 from each account over a 3 week period.. they didnt get any money, but here is were i get concerned.. don't you think the bank should inform somebody if they are getting scammed or frouded? we called 3 times about the same issue and was told all was good. they informed us their system was hacked. no letter. no phone call. no e-mail. no text message. no nothing. for the past 3 weeks somebody has been attempting to steal my hard earned money i never new about it.. the bank didnt think i should be informed on a security issue regourding MY MONEY! WTF!!

Citicard called me about 3 months ago and said my cc# was in a group that may have been stolen and they closed it immediately. So your bank should have contacted you.
 
Some guys from Ghana raped me for over $1400 through Paypal. They used Paypal to X-fer from my bank to the Paypal account then sent it to another fake Paypal account. Paypal caught the transaction and got my money back. Unfortunately they left it in my Paypal balance instead of redepositing it into my bank. Needless to say without overdraft protection built in, I coulda had some serious issues :mad:
 
my bank was hacked into 3 mounths ago and they sent me a letter about it and gave us new cards and accounts your bank should have done the same hope you get it fixxed soon
 
Holy Sh??/? Krp cant be to careful these days.


My wife had a similar encounter with paypal and boy are those guys hard to get in touch with its like fort knox trying to sort your account and yet some fraudster can do it just like that...
