Credit card fraud



So yesterday morning, before my human headed off to work, she decided to pay some bills on-line.  Yet another reason I am happy I am not a human.  Bills.

Anyway, she was rushing to do it and she gasped when she looked at her credit card bill.  Someone had charged over $1000 in purchases to her card - and it wasn't her.  She didn't recognize the names of the places where the charges were made - but they were not made in Nova Scotia.  She quickly called the credit card company to report the problem - and we were all instructed to be VERY quiet while she made the call.  Good luck with that.  Timex 1 and Timex 2 were barking, growling and rolling on the floor.  And I was sitting and staring at her - waiting for the alarm to go off which signals that it is time to get my pill.  I know when my pill will be coming - so I wait for it.  Some might think that my sense of timing amazing.  It's easy to explain.  I just look at the clock.

Anyway, after several minutes on the phone with the credit card company, she was assured that she would not be liable for the charges.    And all was again right with the world.  Although my human wonders how someone would get her number and make those purchases.  She's very puzzled.

So the big question.  How am I going to explain when $1000 worth of dog toys start arriving in the mail...

Have a good one.
