A clear misunderstanding
Dear California Readers:
Please be on the lookout for someone standing near a 7-11 somewhere in your fine state, holding my debit card number and $1800. It seems this person thought it would be okay to take these funds from my account, but actually it wasn't okay. So if you see this person, just let him or her know politely that I'd like that money back, mmkay?
Great. Thanks in advance for your help.

UPDATE: As of today, Loss Prevention has refunded the full amount of fraudulent withdrawals. I guess they really do Watchovaya money. Though, I did have to place another call to remind them to refund the $12 in miscellaneous fees, incurred due to the withdrawals being made on a non-branch-affiliated ATM. Ah, life.

That sucks. I'm so sorry.
Please tell me your bank has some kind of protection plan where you're not actually liable for that money.
I'm in the "investigation" portion of the process. My understanding is that I'll likely get that money back, eventually. It's apparently much more complicated with a debit (vs. a credit) card.
Aw, man. That sucks out loud. Does your protection plan include some kind of vengeance?
teh suck
I don't think the word 'bummer' sums it up, but...that is a bummer. I know Ryan's got plenty of wine you can drown your sorrows in.
mrh: I think I chose free checking over the vengeance option. Damn wisdom of hindsight...
Feeble: noted with interest.
Holy crap. Hopefully he tried this trick at an ATM with a security camera.
yay!!!
