I have the cell number so I might call this weekend offering him a great deal on a "New Chase Platinum Card with unlimited executive priviliges". I just hate scumbags.

What I've learned from this is:

1. No repetitive passwords on accounts

2. Have your cell provider require a PIN text to your cell phone before any account/call changes can be made (so they can verify). You can forward calls but you can't forward texts.

3. Make sure your home WiFi is password protected (mine was, with the same password as my bank,Paypal) and make it long and tough.

Probably normal stuff to think of, but according to all the fraud prevention people I've talked to today, these guys are getting smarter and smarter (they had some horror stories).
