I like pizza. The rest of this post won't have much to do with that fact, but I thought it might be a nice start.
A few days ago, I went down to the local pizza place to pick up an order for me, the roommie, and some friends. I gave the dude my debit card so that he could ring up the charge, and I signed the slip once he gave me back my card.
Fast forward to this afternoon. I'm in Target, and as I pay for my stuff, my debit card was declined. Strange, because I have more than enough money in there. I paid with cash.
I went down to Wegman's so that I could get my brother a nice bottle of porto for his birthday. As I went to pay, my debit card was declined. I even tried the credit feature. No dice.
Curious as to what was up, I give my bank a call. Turns out there's a hold on my card because some fucktard punkass made off with the card number and tried to buy stuff.
The most egregious was an almost $500 charge to Weestern Union. The prick was trying to make off with my cash. There was also a $30 charge to a shoe store, plus a nextel charge and $135 charge to something called Westmarket.
How's that for a wake-up call?! Thank God that my money is still there and that none of the charges went through. My bank has good fraud protection in place, apparently.
Bastards. I'm pissed. I have a feeling it may be someone from the pizza place. That means they'll never again see my business, which is a drag because they make really good pizza.
