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.
That payroll theft must have raised your blood pressure to dangerous levels! Wow. Glad you could recover it. Yes, they actually deposited money into my savings account. Truth be told, it was a bigger prize than my checking. I won't repeat that mistake again.
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!

I think those count as legit organizations - unless of course they're part of the Trump organization, so you would be okay to unsubscribe them.

Hope yours was warm and pleasant!
That was helpful, matey.
Aye Aye!

Same here. It's getting so hard to tell the cops from the robbers.

Glad you figured it out in time! Be on your guard!
