I came home from my Photoshop class last night to find out that someone in New York hacked into my Paypal account and stole everything I had, PLUS $300 from my checking account, that my Paypal account is linked to.

I'm so upset I want to throw up and burst into tears.

I leave on vacation in just a few days and I've just lost $600 that could've been used on my trip.

Paypal has launched an investigation, but it could take up to 30 days to get my money back.

It just SICKENS me that there are people out there who are too fucking lazy to get an actual job, so they steal from others.

I feel so violated now, and terrified that this could happen again, to any of my online accounts (credit cards, etc.)

I truly, truly just want to curl up in a corner and cry.

OMG, that is so scary! I have paypal too and I'm scared to think what would happen if my account got hacked into. Are you at least going to get your money back from Paypal?

It really is scary, because Paypal goes around touting how safe they are. Yeah, not so much! And yes, hopefully I'll get everything back from Paypal if/when they can recover the funds from the thief.
