Debit Card Fraud ??

I've been more active than usual in the WR this morning because I've been on hold/on the phone with my bank for the last 2 hours (50 minute:10 minute ratio, respectively).


Turns out, my debit card info was stolen and used, and almost my entire account tied to that card was drained over the last 24 hours. I actually discovered it on my own and had to call my bank; didn't even get a notification - no idea how that happens. They assured me that they'll be able to refund my money and that it typically takes up to two weeks.


Where was all this money spent, you may ask????


OnlyFans.


Some MF dropped thousands of my dollars on fucking OnlyFans.


I'm not worried about not getting my money back, it's just a huge inconvenience & process.


Any of ya'll got similar stories?

You forgot the part where you got blackout drunk last night and now you're covering your tracks....

But in all seriousness, that sucks. Worst that happened to me was I went to get gas before a trip, and a few hours later someone had my info and used it at the same gas station for $100. No idea how that happened, I thought these chip cards were supposed to prevent them from scanning your card details or whatever they do.ย

Lmao I don't know anyone who's horny enough, has enough time, (or stamina) to drop THOUSANDS of dollars in one day on OF, let alone myself.ย 

That is weird, did you have to cancel your card or what?

Yes, I cancelled my card and they refunded me immediately. My bank actually notified me and flagged it as possible fraud before I even saw it.ย

Dude. This licks.

I think my card got skimmed at a gas station once. My bank caught it when my card was used at the same time in Florida and California.

I now pull up and down quickly on the card readers. If they wiggle I move to a different pump.

Trust me, I would much rather pump my own gas, and enjoyed doing so when I was working in the south. It's pretty brutal when you pull up to aย  packed gas station before work and there's only one attendant working.

I am sorry, that sucks but at least you caught it and the Bank is taking care of it.ย 

But holy shit. Why not get like PornHub premium or something? Or a car. Or TV, OF is so random.

If I go through the effort of stealing someones account I am not wasting it on OF.ย

That sucks ass. Glad you're getting it back though.ย 

Worst that happened to me was that I bought some art off Etsy and a few weeks later someone used my info to buy themselves about $500 worth of jewelry off there. Had to fight with the bank for months but eventually the money was returned.ย 

I hope whoever it was stranglesย themselves with their new fucking necklaces.ย

Those third-party art/clothes/resale/marketplace sites are always having problems like that. They're dangerous too because a lot only use payment options like PayPal and if the seller ghosts or the product isn't what it's supposed to be, PayPal's notoriously awful in communicating/issuing refunds.

@BigCheeseย the OnlyWhale. Just expense it all as networking right?ย ย 


On a serious note, that is no bueno. I lost my card one time on a night out to have someone go on a bender at every open supermarket and a sex shop (no joke). Luckily though it was only a few hundred.ย 

Like you my bank didn't bat an eyelid. They get in a twist when I spend less than <$10 but are fine when I drop a couple of benjamins.ย ย

I had fraud fuck me on my new mortgage's interest rate just a few months ago. Even though the fraudulent item was erased from my credit (some fucking payday loan bullshit) my credit was just not harmed any further- it wasn't restored to previous settings.ย

If I were a daring man, Iโ€™d have a girl I know set up an OF acct, give her all my money via โ€œstolen debit cardโ€ hope to get my money back and we go on a vacation together.ย

That's wild. I notice 6 or 7x $2.50 charges on my card a few months ago...looked like they were doing this to I'm guessing thousands of people and hoping that no one noticed.

I'm way more vigilant with my statements now.

Sorry to hear about this. I had a similar thing happen when I was in London a couple years ago. I got off my plane back and had a bunch of notifications of someone using my credit card at a bunch of stores. Bank got me the money back but was a painful experience for sure.
