Tuesday Mumbles: Identity Theft

Happy Tuesday everyone, it’s Ya boy Choujin here.

A week ago, ya boy had found his card wasn’t working. Upon doing a check with the bank, I found out that my card got compromised. Appaarently, two days ago, someone from Turlock tried to use my card to buy 130 bucks worth of Pizza (and it was Pizza Guys pizza. Not knocking on those that love them. Though I don’t know if that would be worth 130 bucks of pizza). However, it was annoying was that it meant I didn’t have any way of buying physical stuff! (I still have Paypal but you can’t do shopping via it..yet.)

Bet you’re wondering how that whole thing started? Well..I can’t put my finger but my issue was due to a compromised payment system. Those would be those credit readers you see in grocery stores and such. Where it happened? who knows? May have been at the pet store or in Old Sacramento. Can’t point fingers as it can happen to anybody. It’s annoying when you go shopping and you don’t know until you try to buy something and find your card invalid. However, lucky for me, nothing was lost just was locked out.


However, i’ve heard some folks aren’t that lucky and find themselves in the hole, and some are used for far worse stuff. Like losing your savings as some guy from India hacked your card and bought Fortnite Vbucks to sell to people. Lucky for me, I am a bit cautious.


Though some would say I should invest in some stuff like SecureLock or whatever group that’ll protect you from this. When in short, even that won’t be a safe thing.

Though I would have to say, what more annoys me is that someone would go that way to steal your card just for crappy pizza (again, not ragging on Pizza Guys or those who like them.) Just scratching my head on this crap.

Either way, nothing else of any problem. With that over, I hope it doesn’t happen again or to anyone else. Nobody should have to deal with that mess (not even my worse enemies.)
