I have a very low opinion of thieves in general, having been the victim of one recently. And it seems to have happened again.
I've just found out that in time for Christmas someone has managed to purloin my debit card details and seem to be using it to purchase their Chrimbo presents... about £300 worth!
Now this is relatively easily rectifiable - the payment has gone through a Paypal account so they will hopefully look into it, and when the phonelines open with Santander a little later this morning I'll report the transaction and get a stop put on the card.
But really! To steal at Christmas. The sad thing is whoever has done this has ultimately just ruined their own one too - because they will get caught.
Anyway, moral of the story - be careful, and check your statements!
