without wanting to cause panic on the streets of southville, after reading
an article in the local rag that there is a bit of an epidemic of card clone
fraud amongst southville residents, I found out yesterday that someone tried
to clear out my bank account on new years eve*. I don't know the full
details yet, i.e whether I was a victim of card cloning or internet fraud
but just a quick heads up to watch out for card skimming devices or suspect
looking chip and pin terminals in the southville area, and keep a close eye
on your statements.

* it wasn't me honest - I couldn't even get any cash out new years eve,
hence my call to the bank the next day

oh, and happy new year!
