That would be me. I'm easy to scam, which is funny because I'm suspicious by nature and you'd think I'd see through scams. But no, I don't, and I'm pretty sure I got scammed by someone calling themselves Facebook.
See, my account got locked, and they said I needed to send in a photo ID to verify my identity. I thought at the time that I was at the actual Facebook site, but now I look back at it I'm not sure. Did I go through the fishy message I received? I can't remember, and that's got me worried.
So Damm will be calling our lawyer group to see what we might need to do. He can't think of ways one could use a Driver's License, but I can-see, that suspicious nature. That does me absolutely no good when confronting an actual scam.
I should just stop using the Internet. It is evil. Evil evil evil.
Now I understand all those old people who refuse to use the internet. It's just too easy to accidentally give away vital information. And if you know that you're easily susceptible that's even more reason to stay far, far away.
Or just be more careful. Take Internet safety classes.
I still feel sick from this. Bah.

Larry thinks that they're selling information and it's just a new gimk-y way to do it.
A few days later, when I noticed the second transaction from that store on our card, I returned to the store and spoke to the Manager. He credited the $50 back to me, but I don't know if he deducted it from the clerk's final paycheck. Yes, final paycheck. For the sake of $50 some idiot kid got himself fired just days before Christmas.
