Well ... I thought it would never happen to me !!!!
3 weeks ago I noticed an unusal mail noticfication pop up on my screen from Google Checkout , so I tried to login to my gmail account to see what was going on ..
To my shock I couldn't access my mail , being on the cautious side I phoned my credit card company and asked if my card had been used .. Nope !! to my relief ..
That was Monday .. I'd been checking daily my accounts " just in case " then on Thursday I saw the shock --- my bank current account had been wiped out and overdrawn by a couple of thousand pounds !!!

Turns out someone had hacked my google checkout , waited a while then started having a spending spree at my expense .. Google have been a nightmare to deal with and I'm still waiting for the bank to refund my money ..

It's a Nasty feeling being robbed , especially from someone online :-(

I use very strong passwords and change them regularly .. and I only use my pc at work for making purchases ..

I used to be one of those people who thought "it'll never happen to me "

Oops
