What the fuck?! What an arsehole! Thanks, actually - I think I might be a bit more vigilant in monitoring my passwords from now on!

cheeky fuckers!

I definitely recommend having a password blitz.

Glad you got it straightened out!

My paypal WAS hacked a couple years
ago - and I caught it right after it
happened.

Cld all my creditors and bank.
Canceled paypal. Done putting my info
online.

Plus I like to shop and see the item
in front of me, and it's good exercise
the way I shop. lollllllllllllll

(back and forth, back and forth)
