Do you think that you had a weak password or did you fall for one of the phishing scams?

I'm afraid it was weak password. I don't login off any of those emails. I don't have a weak password now, and it isn't one I've used on any other site.

The largest charge for 12.00 has already been reversed by the chargee. The other two are for less than $3.00 thankfully, so even if they don't get reversed, it isn't a big loss.

I just opened my email and the 2nd of three charges was refunded by paypal from their investigation. Wow paypal is working fast on this.

I'm just glad I caught it quick, who knows what they would have charged next...maybe a really big charge if they saw all the little ones going through.

I know, it makes me smile too. I'm just ADD enough that it can be very true.
