Oh, you are gonna love this!!!

So, Friday, I went to my MOPS group. It is for Mothers of Preschoolers. there are about 50 women in the group and it is a lot of fun. We meet once a month and have topics to discuss, a guest speaker, etc. This month was on identity theft, credit card fraud, etc. My friend Lori's husband Brent spoke as he used to be in this division of the police. It was a great class, and Gareth and I talked that night about how we pretty much do everything he talked about. We shred all of our papers. We pay cash for just about everything rather than putting it on our card. Long story short, we have one credit card, but we really don't use it unless we need to book a flight to England. Normally, we don't even open the statement because we don't charge anything. We were getting our tax info. together today and Gareth opens it and says, are you flying somewhere?? (kinda joking, our anniversary is this week) Anyway, it turns out that someone got a hold of our card number and has been charging away. We still have the card, it isn't like we lost it somehow. The funny thing is the person that has been charging is in England!! How that happened, we have no idea. Luckily the women with the card company was very nice and put it through to investigations after putting a stop on it!!
We just have to laugh. It is a bit scary that we have no idea how they could have done it, but they did!!!
