Less than a year later, someone accessed our debit card info from a ticket site, and went on a spending spree across the planet. The most interesting purchase was surveillance equipment, but the culprit also stopped to purchase several hundred dollars of romantic flowers from an online company. We were told by our bank and credit card companies that they deal with numerous cases like this daily.
Needless to say, we are vigilant now, combing over our statements and checking the credit agencies often.
It feels sort of like revenge, but I think it’s more of the old-school mindset I learned from growing up around so many people born in the early 1910s and 20s, like my grandparents. “These kids need to learn a lesson.”
I just feel like finding the cretins who did this, and schooling them on leaving others’ things alone while shaking my finger at them. I know the system couldn’t care any less.
On a side note, the DCF lady to whom I’ve been referring -— I found a link that shows that in 2009, she won an integrity award for something in her division. So just maybe she’s an angel who’s found a way to survive down in PBC government.
I’m off for several hours now. Have a sick kiddo I need to take to the doctor.
