Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day......
Paige,
It took about 4 days to get my money back. But had to close out that account and open a new one, change all the auto drafts etc. Now I have two accounts and check them online daily. They usually start out by charging a really small amount and testing if it goes thru than they really kick in. It will all work out it just takes time. Make sure you put alerts on all three credit bureaus that way if anyone tries to open credit card etc. you will get an alert.
Hugs,
Lynnette
Just a thought, but do you still have your WM reciept?
It'll have the employee that checked you out and the register # and all the transaction info from your legit purchase. It's been a long time since I worked retail, but they should keep a record of everyone that dealt with that drawer all the way up to who counted it down in the cash office.
My guess is that it probably wasn't the checker, but someone at the cash office level.
Anyway, might be a place to start.

They wrote over 25 checks. They had my cell phone and my work credentials. I called them and told them to come out to my house that they knew where I lived and that I had a 9 mm with their name on it. To make a long story short, I kept calling my cell phone jacking with the people. They even wrote 2 checks and had pizza delivered. I went to the bank and got a copy of where the check they wrote for the pizza. I went to that address. The apartment was empty. Out of all the places they wrote checks, the Dollar Store of all places, caught them. Needless to say they were arrested a few weeks later and are now doing jail time for numerous identify thefts.. it will take a while to clean up the mess. But, you can clean it up. Sorry hun... Keep your chin up..
Smile, it increases your face value.
