The bank froze my CC, my account, has my money hostage, and Paypal has guaranteed themselves an hourly cussng now. (I decided that I'm calling them every hour on the hour and cussing someone until I get this cleared up.)

Shit man, that's gotta totally fucking suck. Way back in 2000-2001 I had a someone wipe me out of over 4k, it was partly my fault for not catching it earlier than I did but I can feel your pain. I had some little shady hole in wall hosting company that I was using for a little side project. I wrote them an online check that they were suppose to take something like 160$ out of my account every 6 months, well the bastards were taking it out 3-4 times a week, and before I finally caught it I was out of over 4k$. My bank was no help at all in recovering it, I was able to recover close to 1k$ from the bastard after various threats before he totally dissapeared. As I later found out he had done the same thing to numerous people. Then I had the episode of getting double charged by AOL back when I had DSL with them way back in 2002 I think. That ended up causing me to bounce a series of 15-20 2$-3$ debit card purchases that racked up over 600$ in bank fees. My bank (same one I had before) and AOL never helped me out one bit. Needless to say I no longer bank here.
Man, I hope you have better luck recovering your money than I did, I know how bad it feels to be ripped off.
