And then we got HACKED

Fucking hackers

Low life scum

Hacked our PayPal account VIA FACEBOOK (not my fb account either) to the tune of $810 in 5 seperate transactions

Could have been worse

But it takes 7 - 10 days to be investigated and the money back in our account

*sigh*

Big A mentioned something about their subsequent lack of ability to type if he got hold of them......

Lisa ~ Thank you, nice to hear from you :) Paypal are pretty good with getting money back to you in these situations.

Nat ~ It seems that a hacker set up a poker game app on facebook or had hacked an existing legit one - Big A installed the app and bought credits for the game with paypal, and they got 'in' that way as far as we know. The hacker tried to take over Big A's facebook account as well.

the shits should be made to walk on broken glass on their knees and beg your forgiveness.
Or yeah cut off their hands, either way is good.
At least you will get your money back, always a bonus.

Angela ~ I know, but then they would learn to type with their feet.... :p We are not exactly internet dummies either - so they did well to trick the Big A...what a shame they can't use their talents more honestly eh
