Although it isn’t a laughing matter, I am trying to see the humour in recent events. When I checked our bank account on Friday, I noticed a charge of $192.11 from Walmart.com and it caught my attention. Regular purchases from a Walmart are recorded with the store number and location but this was specifically Walmart.com. I did purchase items around Black Friday using the Walmart.com which is essentially buying online from their online catalogue but not since then. My first thought was that it was a double billing but that wasn’t the case. I reported to the bank and then last night I also reported to Walmart.com. It would appear that someone (named Carol Logan) opened a new Walmart.com account using my bank card number and ordered a window air conditioner with it. The customer rep at Walmart checked out the account and although it wasn’t the one I have with them it is using my bank card info. The AC unit has been shipped and FedEx is going to deliver by the 28th – she is attempting to stop delivery – and that delivery is in Los Angeles, CA. Scary thought that someone could access my number/name so easily – and yes that card is in my possession and was never out of it except when I purchased with it. Something to be said for those folks who believe in keeping their money under their mattress, LOL!
