Hack Job

Thursday, March 7th, 2013

I was totally bummed when the call came at 5:30am with news that school was CANCELLED for a snowday.  I really had big hopes for that extra day the school board had tacked onto Spring Break this year.  I mean, seriously?  A Monday off after a glorious week of spring break fun?  Awesome-sauce!

Now, it's a make-up day!  DARN IT!

Fast forward to 10:30am my cellphone rang with a strange number AND I ALMOST DIDN'T ANSWER IT!!!!  Thank you God for the nudge to answer that call.  The caller was informing me that my purchase was being declined because my account was overdrawn. WHAT?  Again, thank you thank you thank you God!  I sprung into action because had I been at school, I certainly wouldn't have answered the phone. There is no telling how much more damage the criminal jerk turdhead creep stealer badguy would've gotten away with.  You do know these people are rarely caught?  The banks or whoever answers the phone when you call for help pretty much tell you….they don't chase this stuff down to prosecute!  Really?  Then I'm quitting my job and beginning my own hacking biz!  Geez!  My first order?  FRYE BOOTS!!!

Hackers/thieves are maddening and this is a violation that robs a person in more ways than one!  I'm angry.  The hoopla to get this stopped is not just a hassle it's scary.  All because these jerks shop until the card is dry while the cardowner sleeps like a baby during the middle of the night.  Luckily, our bills were just scheduled and paid otherwise these slimeballs would've had lots more money to blow.  Perks to being poor, huh?

I heard on The Today Show this morning that Taylor Swift spoke out about Tina Fey & Amy Pohler cracking jokes about her a few weeks back at the Golden Globes.  Taylor responded with "there's a special place in hell for women who don't help other women!".  I understand her feelings.  That's how I feel about people who steal from bank accounts that aren't theirs.  Hackers are evil!  And we all know where evil belongs…

Ahem, but pointing my own heart back in the right direction now is what I must do and pray blessings over the ones who decieved me by using my bankcard.  I'm not doing it because I want to, trust me.  It just came to me that I'm missing out if I choose to be angry and wish bad vibes on whoever did this.

Have you ever been a victim of this sort of crime?  It stinks!  Mama's, teach your children NOT TO STEAL!

God,

I know that I can trust you.  From the smallest need to the biggest.  Forgive me when I try to run ahead of you and fix the problems I face.  Your ways are not mine….but I sure want them to be.

Amen
