Default Update your antivirus software!!

Logged onto my bank account today only to find some toe rag had helped themselves to 5k. Apparently they were able to log onto my computer while I lay sleeping dreaming of jeeps, then to my Internet banking and then using another password transfer out the money to an external account.

Pretty good considering it was all done on my work computer that has all the protections you would expect when you consider I work for a large organisation. Bank immediately replaced the money so no issue there, but all accounts have to be suspended, all computers checked and soon I may have mortgages all over china/India/russia!

Still at least my Viagra should arrive soon

Your not the only one, last month while diving on the Great Barrier, a 50 minute boat ride off shore with no mobile reception
I apparently puchased an iphone on ebay UK,
paid with Indian Rupee’s
and had it posted to Germany and to add insult the bank hit me up with a foreign currency exchange fee.
Still hasn't been resolved.
