hhehehe I HAVE to know these things, I got deeply involved for a time with security experts and am very friendly still with a guy in the UK.. He shows me stuff that would make your hair curl.

Norton, and all the others never catch everything.. they do the best they can, but it is not always 110%. Installing 2 anti-virus programs is not the answer either.. they end up fighting each other and can dramatically slow your PC down.

I did read the posts on Forum and I am overwhelmed...who knew? Not me!! Anyway, I will most definately follow your instructions and have my computer checked out and install that free program you referenced. I do have Norton but apparently that's not enough. Until I rectify the possible problem, I won't be ordering on line! Thanks for your concern and leadership!!

Subject: Re: NailTech:: Funny thing JUST happened to me.....

Marsha

cripes thats a pain, happened to me once, and I still have no idea how they got my stuff..

I just this week addressed this issue on the forums I'll grab that link for ya'll to read, but basically you ALL need to follow the steps I have outlined in the long post there.

These things happen every dam day to the most innocent people.. I even read somewhere recently some head of something, like CitiBank or something, happened to him also! In the event Marsha had, the card was charged a small amount, possibly a recurring charge you may not have even noticed.. this is almost always from some trojen/virus thing capturing your information. Whether it was an ATM, in a brick & mortar store, or online. I can speak for only the sites I manage on my server.. I am OCD about security and I actually check in and snoop into my clients stuff to make sure they are following protocols to keep your info safe. In these cases, since I set up the sites I know whats encrypted whats not, what should be there some 5-10 days after your order was placed and what I should NOT see there at that point.

Most of these come from a trojen being installed on your computer called a key logger. It does just that captured every key stroke and sends it to your enemy. When they get good info - your card info in this case, they sell it to their evil friends then those nasty icky slimy people start going on shopping sprees with your card. Key loggers can be very hard to find and harder to remove. If you clicked that video that was being passed around FB just last week, you may have gotten it. If you click a link from one of the hacked hotmail/aol/yahoo accounts you may have gotten it. If you are a googling freak, you need to be cautious as to what sites you decide to checkout from that search.

Basically you can not be cautious enough both online and in Walmart.

OK please take a sec and go read my post on the forums..

AND NEVER EVER contact these people yourself.. it will get you no where and quite possibly give them missing information so they can go to Hawaii on you! Call your bank or credit card company and let them handle it

Marsha, if you have more questions please let me know.

I just got a call from my bank. A flag had popped up regarding my debit card. Long story short...I checked my on line account and 4 Pre Auth charges came in for $1, $1.09, $29.95 and $50. None of them were authorized/initiated by me! The caller said often a charge for $1 will be attempted to see if the account is accessible. All of the debits were made yesterday, on Sept. 15. I cancelled my debit card and will pick up a new one tomorrow. Just thought I'd let ya'll know!!
