Yesterday I was coming down with a head cold so I was looking forward to a quiet evening. After supper I checked my email and found notices from paypal informing me I had printed about 15 shipping labels with eBay for a total of about $600,, which of course I hadn’t. I then spent the next two hours on the phone talking with eBay, paypal, and Wells Fargo. I put a hard stop on my checking account and changed passwords with paypal and instructed them to investigate this fraudulent activity. eBay is also investigating. So much for a quiet evening. At least I was able to see the second half of the opening season football game with my cowboys beating last years superbowl champs New York. Today I opened a new checking account. At this point my actions saved any losses to my checking, we had about $86 dollars in paypal which may be gone. This is a reminder there are folks out there that seek to earn their living taking from others. Oh, my cold symptoms are a little worse today!

Sorry to hear about your travails Woody. That is sad that people would try to steal like that. I hope your cold feels better soon.
Wow. How awful. Hope they catch whoever did that. Glad you caught it when you did.
Sorry about that!
Oh dear! Sickness and theft are not a good combination. May you feel better soon!
How disheartening! Hope it all works out and that you get your $86 dollars back.
Wow! I’m glad it did not end up worse than it did!
