[QUOTE="Cheeseball, post: 56643, member: 838"] What sticks in my crawl is that financial institutions have named it "Identity theft" in the first place. Like somehow someone is committing a crime against YOU and that the financial institutions are somehow doing you a favor by "taking care of everything". This couldn't be further from the truth. The fact is, is that the financial institutions set up the credit card systems and they are responsible for their security. If a criminal hacks their system, the criminal commits fraud/computer crime against the institution not YOU. The actual crimes have nothing to do with you, other than the criminal used your info to crash the system. Looking at it from that perspective, you should be giving you bank hell for it happening in the first place not thanking them. [/QUOTE]
