" Hello to everyone..... Just want to alert you to a online fraud Scam...Beware!!... when shopping with Amazon... as my computer was hacked and from me opening what I thought was a email to say my goods where being delivered. WRONG!.. by me opening the mail.... I unknowingly let them hack into my bank account.... and I have only just come of phone from the fraud squad. so at least I know now why my computer died.. and I have had to buy a new one...Gosh!... These past few weeks have been a nightmare for me....I've Been in hospital..... Computer blew up..... Then my internet was down for 3 days..... Then tonight.. I learn my bank details have been hacked and my account emptied....The only good news that's come my way is.. Cherie.. moves to the UK...The end of August...Yeah!!...Megan..x."
Warning ..HACKER'S..: " Hello to... - Lung Conditions C...
Warning ..HACKER'S..
Won't your bank refund the money? Do you always use PayPal?
We had £134 taken once and PayPal refunded it.
Hi Megan how awful for you. The good news is that they say things comes in 3's, well you have had your 3 and things will only get better for you now. Chin up kid and stay strong. Things will improve. Take care x
" Thanks Cough... Yes the past few weeks have been awful for me.. But only one way now, hey!!...that's forward. Hoping your keeping well.....Megan"
What a nightmare of a time you've had Megan, I hope you have all your money refunded soon, it must feel a bit like being burgled, what evil pigs to do that!!!🐖🐖🐷🐷🐷🐽🐽🐖
I bought a years 'livesafe' with my new laptop as I have been worried lately.
Cal2 is right things can only get better from now on, soon Cherie will be with you💝💟💝 and you will put all that stuff behind you! Nightnight, Hugs huff xxxx
" Awe huff...thank you too. Yes thankfully my bank as fully refunded me and it is now in the hands of the fraud squad......apparently these hackers focus on well knows sites as.. I know PayPal as well as Amazon have been hacked. recently. what's even more infuriating is..... I have Norton.... plus AVG Security on my new computer...... as I did on my old one they hacked into and chewed up...But!! as you say. Cherie will be here soon.... have a lovely day Huff.....x Megan."
Oh Megan, that really sucks. I would have fallen for that too... so I will be looking out now. I buy loads of stuff 'one click' from Amazon and I absentmindedly open all mail from them too. Will be checking sender from now on. I'm sorry this happened to you. Hopefully your bank will put your money back in? They've done it twice for me in the past. Once an ATM scam (nearly 3000 quid! I nearly fainted - online gambling apparently), and more recently a card scam - have no idea how - somebody living miles away in London ordered a pair of Ugg boots. Uch! The clincher was they were a size 7 - I only take size 4 - so of course that clinched it! ha ha ha!!! Financial fraud on cards and the like seems to be modern day scourge. On the other hand absolutely totally exciting news about your friend. Go with that and enjoy your glee.....! xxx piggi
" Thank you piggi....Yes it is so easily done..I know am going to be very mindful when opening any email's from wherever...what's was so infuriating was..i had just ordered some things from Amazon.. and as you know.... they always send you a mail saying... your orders have been despatched.. so I opened it not realising it was spam mail....as you say..i have Cherie coming to Live with me in just a few weeks...And look forward too... that makes me so happy...have a lovely day....xx Megan.
Luckily the only scam nearly pulled on me was by someone trying to use my paypal account to buy a smart phone in New York! I live in West Wales but occassionally have bought stuff for my Grandsons in Florida on the US sites like Amazon and ebay but i have never been to New York. Pay Pal actually contacted me to ask me if it was me so they were keeping aware.
Yea ,some good news for you, how wonderful, looking. At it posivetively you are clearing. The way and getting sorted for a brand new life,,,wonderful,....enjoy your hot tub be fore winter sets in,sleep outside, I'm sorry you've had a hard time recently but that's over ,look forward to great times ahead I'm so happy for you. Bonnie x
" Awe. Bonny..... Your so Kind... Thank you for your lovely post.... And Yes...Only one way to go.... and that's forward...I am so happy. So fortunate to have met Cherie at this stage of my life, and too know that we will grow old together is so Beautiful.... And there's still plenty of time yet Bonnie to spend time in the Hot Tub..lol...Hoping life is being kind to you.... Keep Yourself well...x Megan."
hello Megan
there is always some thieving bas....ds in this world who are out to make a quick buck at others expense. Thanks for the info, I will be on my guard as Like most of the universe I use amazon.
You certainly have been through the mill lately, but things will start looking up for you, I am sending you some of my ' Velvet's.. Bring it on, you won't beat me...Vibes. Hope they work.
Velvet xx
" Thank you for your lovely post too Me.... Velvet... well hopefully as things come in three so they (who ever they are) Say.....so that's my 3 out the way now....I'm going to keep my focus and attention on positive things, that is coming my way.... Not! all these horrible negative things that have plagued me lately..... keep yourself well...x Megan."
You have had some rotten luck recently. Hope you get refunded on the money. Wonderful news that Cherie will soon be here with you. That is certainly something to look forward to xx
" Lyn. Thank you for your post. And Yes!!! I am putting all these other things out my mind..."Kind of defrag my own brain"..... and focus now on my Next journey through my life.... But this time... It Wont be alone.... It will be..... Hand in Hand... With a Beautiful and so loving, kind women... That I have met in Cherie.... Lyn...Have a lovely safe.. What's left of today...x Megan."
I use outlook express, all the dodgy stuff gets flagged. I only allow proper address on my contacts.
I also have AVG security and Malaware bytes (FREE) That gets rid of fake search engines likw webcakes, conduit and others.
" Yes... Sky... I too use all the said names you just mentioned. But as the fraud officer said.....these low life can get into your Computer regardless of your security...what they have highly recommended me to do daily. And that is..run a scan through my computer daily....
Sorry to hear that Megannell. They wouldn't have much luck if they did that to me ....there's never anything in my bank account! lol 
" Awe...Nikkers.. I didn't have a lot of money in my bank...just enough to cover all my bills and direct debits...But its the fact of knowing.... And as Huff said..... Its just like being burgled. Violated..still cant dwell on what as happened...I am going to just look forward only. Lol...Megan..."
Same here these days. Mind, it is always because I spend money - but new outfits for weddings etc - what can you do?
I wouldn't know....never have it to spend in the first place! lol X
Hi Megan, gosh you have had a bad time recently, I hope you got all your money back and that you are well again after your hospital stay.
I hope you had a better time than me at setting up your new pc I think I have taken mine back to manufacturers settings at least 5 times in a week, things are getting better now though.
Great news about Cherie, how lucky you are.
take care
polly xx
" Thank you polly.. thankfully my health is back to feeling a lot better now...I have finished all my steroids and antibiotics....Wow..... You too had to take your computer back to manufactures too. I had to alter my screen resolution to a lower setting.... Otherwise everything was so small I couldn't read anything even though i had altered all the text sizes... so I am feeling a clever little thing for being able to do that....have a lovely day.... x Megan."
was the post from amazon in your spam box?
" No Whit..it came with other mail.. There was nothing what so ever too suggest it was fake Post......
i use amazon a lot , i will have to be careful in future, but you need to open them to see if your parcel has been posted. have you told amazon?
" Hello Whit..And No..Halifax Fraud team are contacting Amazon.. thankfully.... all I had to do was sign some paper's and leave the rest to Halifax Fraud Team...As you say you have to open your amazon order's to check the delivery time's. Just need to be more vigilant now I think... ..Megan."
Hi Megan, Glad to hear that the problem was sorted out quickly for you & your money refunded? Last year my Visa card which never leaves the house ( we only use it to pay for flights to the States when we visit our son) was used by someone to pay for flights from Stanstead to Berlin & the cheeky s**s also bought their Travel Insurance as well!!! 😂
" Wow! Helen..That was awful for you. The bank have been very good and reimbursed me with all that was taken out of my bank account...... and they have changed all my credit card details.... plus I now have new cards too. The fraud squad have said they will be contacting Amazon about securing there security more. So guess all we can do for ourselves is to be Mindful. I was advised to use PayPal. When paying for goods, as you don't have to revel your bank details when using PayPal...But having said that..PayPal's site as just been hacked too.. according to the fraud squad..So can only be more vigilant I recon Helen....... Take care and enjoy the rest of your day..Megan."
Thanks for the warning. I shop a lot on Amazon. Sound like you've been through the wars. Hope you have recovered health wise and financially?
Regards
Malinka
" Thank you for your lovely post Malinka... and Yes.. slowly but surely...I am getting there..my health is a lot better again.... That I am now so happy about again.... And my bank.. is now looking a lot healthier...Best foot forward here on in..And hoping your keeping well.. Megan."
Bad time but dealt with now. Thankfully you lost nothing. Look to your bright future. Hugs. xx
You know we have had similar things to this before. Always seems to be something like your Royal Mail or some other delivery is ready for your collection as the subject line and then when you open it your computer is hacked. Usually happens around Christmas time and my other half has fallen for it twice, when I had realised what they were - as didn't have any parcel to collect - i do my shopping early ha ha. No I have to remember to tell him if I get one so that he can remember to delete it immediately when he gets it on his e mails.
My Anti virus is scanning all the time, it has stopped several threats lately.
I have the BT hub security as well as AVG (paid for)
" I now have added a security system, that's used by the BBC..So if its good enough for them... then its good enough for me.. lol. Its called ESET...Plus I use (paid also) AVG...Megan."
Sorry to hear about your account being hacked but fantastic news of your partner coming to live in the UK I hope you will both be very happy
" Thank you onamission....All the bad bits are now behind me...And in just a few more weeks.. Cherie will have moved into my home... and then.. Our Journey will begin...Hoping life is being kind to you...Megan."
Hi Megan
Just read your post. Thats terrible! I also get alot of stuff from amazon. Will have to be careful. Like Cough says..... Things come in 3s so your good to go now.
Hope your feeling well. Yeah ..... to your new start with Cherie. 😀😀😀
Rubyxx😊😊
" Hi to you Ruby....Yes..be very careful when opening emails from Amazon. Hoping they will change there security system... and make it safer for the millions of customer's. And Yes. Cough is perfect right when she says things come in three's.. well I have had my three.. And.. NO! I don't wish them on anybody. And in just a few more weeks Cherie's company will have transferred her to the UK..and in with Me..... I am so lucky Ruby...never thought at 70.." Well 69 n half" lol..Sshhh..lol..... I would feel and be loved ever again.....Hoping life is being kind to you too.. take care...x Megan."
