I somehow got on a mailing list and I receive about 4-5 unwarranted policy or newsletters from very conservative folks and organizations. I do unsubscribe them but perhaps I should leave them be as you suggested with spam. The problem is I will be inundated until I change my email address. . .
I feel like I was on the scene when the bank closed your account. Glad that’s resolved. I’m en route from Minneapolis but will listen to the podcast tomorrow. Hope you had a sweet holiday.
Scary Stuff! I get a lot of these too.. they can be confusing even for a young old person like me. Norton is relentless same with the car warranty calls. Do people ACTUALLY LISTEN? ROBOT CALLERS...So are you saying that they put the $16 back into your account but to your savings? could they trace the robber? I have, during my Type A years, $9,998 stolen from my payroll account, just under the $10,000 flag, and it was made to look like an employee paid themselves. thankfully, I was repaid by the payroll company never found out how but I was able to to trace that it went onto an pay per bank account like a throw away/burner bank account... its a tragic thing.
Glad to see I’m not the only one to get the Norton “invoice.” I’m prone to suspecting I may have made some purchase that I’d forgotten about - computer security related, no less!
So sorry you had to go through this headache, Don. I think the warning is needed though. I get a ton of these phishing emails and it’d be so easy to tap on one of them if I was tired or being absentminded (or figuratively fighting crime in my novel). I got scammed by some Visa-fraud-dept. impersonators last year but luckily figured it out and froze my card before they had a chance to do some serious spending!

That was helpful, matey.
