To The Heartless Bastard That Ripped Us Off:


You thought you were pretty sly, didn't you? Actually, what where you thinking anyway? Well, your bull shit stops here, right now. It's fortunate for our family that I'm completely neurotic about our financial situation & I compulsively check our online bank statement, micro managing every single transaction. That's where I busted you.

At first I didn't know what to think. You see, in our family Bill takes care of all of the financial aspects of our life & I'm left in the dark (very stupid, I know. But no matter what changes we make, we always fall back into this pattern). So, when I saw that we had 3 "bills" paid by Paypal, I thought to myself "Hmmm, I don't remember talking about these when we went over the budget yesterday & why in the HELL are they getting paid through Paypal?" But I shrugged it off, thinking that I would talk to Bill about it when he got home from work & I continued to sing & laugh & play with my baby. Yes, you read that right. My BABY. But we'll get to that part a little bit later.

Later that night Bill gets home. We talk about our days & then nonchalantly I ask him, "Hey, what's up with about $500 getting paid? I don't remember talking about a $500 bill". "What?" he says. "We don't have any bills that are $500. Who did it get paid to?" Still not thinking too much about it, I tell him "I don't know, it went through Paypal". "We don't pay any bills through Paypal" he says & we go upstairs so I can show him the online statement.

After taking one look at it, "This is fraud. These aren't bills". Great. Now I'm really pissed off at you. You STOLE $573.12 from a family, yes a FAMILY, that is in no financial situation to be less than that. Bill calls the bank right away to report your assholish actions & then we were told that you didn't steal our bank account number through a card (we thought this because my card expires this month & I still haven't received it in the mail, while Bill has had his for weeks now), but you hacked into our Paypal account that we never use.

We pull up our Paypal account & look at the history. There it is. The shit you bought with our hard earned money. We take a look at the sites that you bought from:
  • www.R3N3.com. This looks like you set up a web site.
  • www.ecki.com. Ok, advertising software for the site you're putting up.
  • www.paltalk.com. A voice & video chat program. Now I know what you're doing.

You stole money from our family to start up a PORN SITE! YOU FUCKING IDIOT! Here I am, depriving myself of fucking sugar free jello when we go grocery shopping so I can still be a stay at home mom & you steal $573.12 to start up a skanky ass web cam site! I WANT TO KILL YOU! If you were smart & the least bit good looking, you could've found yourself a sugar daddy to fund your endeavors. But no. No, you take money from a family that has a 3 MONTH OLD BABY. We have to buy DIAPERS & WIPES for our baby. We have to buy GROCERIES so we can EAT. We have REAL BILLS TO PAY. I FUCKING HATE YOU!

I hope your site fails. I hope you don't make any money at all. I hope you get AIDS from the shit you do on your webcam. I hope you get this evil disease & it eats your body alive, leaving you a weak & lonely shell of a human being. You fucking shitbag.

Now, not only has our bank been notified, but Paypal as well. You won't be able to take anymore money from us. Thankfully we'll be OK because I have been obsessive about our financial situation, making sure we don't spend too much. It will take about a week to get our money back. A week. No big deal. So while our family won't be in ruins because of you, you stupid piece of shit, I hope karma bites you in your STD ridden ass. I believe in karma. You get in life what you put out into the universe. Someday, you'll get what's coming to you. I'll say it again, I hope it's AIDS.

Sincerely,

Kristin
A stay at home mom who would've liked to use that money for her family

I hate that for you! That sucks! I have had $400 stolen out of my wallet when I taught school. You feel so violated! I am so sorry!

Why the FUCK (sorry, if you can use adult language, so can I) isn't PayPal doing anything about this??? THEIR software was vulnerable, you get hacked into and you're just fucked out of $575???? Please tell me you will call them RIGHT AWAY and tell them you will get a LAWYER (or, at least, that you, me and everybody else you know will put up a warning to the people of the internet NOT to trust their paypal account).

If they don't, I will personally start a fund drive to get you back some of this money. That sucks, and I am so sorry for you guys. When I win the lotto, you guys are at the top of my list.

That's AWFUL! I can't believe people! Luckily you are smart and keep track of everything! We had a fraudulent charge on our visa once. yeah, I have never been to Spain, but apparently someone got a nice souvenier! We got the money back, and I am so greatful that you are too!

Wow, that is horrible! I'm so sorry that happened. Hubby's paypal account was recently hacked too. We're keeping an eye out to see what happens. I think I'll tell him what happened to you so he can cancle his credit cards that are associated with that account and close the account. How awful.

Remind me to never cross you! Something like that happened to my SIL thru paypal. Will the bank reimburse you? I sure hope so, that's got to be the worst feeling.

That really sucks. I had that happen to me once. They stole about $400 from me. I have no idea if they were ever caught or punished, I hope so because they actually bought some mail order stuff. You might be covered under the paypal protect stuff, but you should call them immediately.

Well, Bill told me that the bank will deposit a refund on Friday. We filled out an affidavit for PayPal & we're getting it out today. I'm not exactly sure what PayPal is going to do (other than freezing our account, which was done the night we found out about the theft). Anyhow, I'll keep everyone updated because we all use PayPal at some time or another.
