Ok. Serenity rocked. No more info available for you all.
After coming home, I discovered that my credit card was compromised. Already shut everything down, and they were just tamper charges, so no real financial damage done, but irritating all the same. One company, Digital Age, was traced to Cyprus, the other, Trouble Bubble...to the same source. Both aren't the final stop, so no clue where they are really based. Probably purely digital and non-existent. Irritates me when I can't buy some steel toed boots and lay some justice on people who try to steal from me...but it is probably just as well. I'm not as spry as I used to be, and I know people who are much more digitally skilled than I am are on the case. Researching the situation, it seems the only 100% commonality is that everyone hit by this has a Paypal account and a Chase type credit card, so could be either. Since a huge % of the accounts out there are Chase, and Chase covers Paypal's own credit lines, it would be more likely a Paypal breach than a Chase breach, I suppose. Bah, anyway. Initially I had thought it was Amazon, but it doesn't look like it. That pleased me.
I just hate having to pass up on vindication. Still a personal struggle for me - passing up on Wrath to serve Patience. Ah well, still have come a long way, and as long as the hurt gets passed on to them, I'm satisfied. Especially if it takes the form of digital theft.
At least it wasn't a large sum, and it will be recovered. All in all, the day still turned out great. Serenity. Yum.
