Theives a great argument for savings!
The title says it all! My husband debit card information was cloned and they wiped out his account between last night and 5:30 this morning.
I am the saver in our relationships, being a sahm saving money is tough. I do however make it a prority. This is a great reson why! We do not share bank accounts so he writes me a check every pay day so that I can pay the bills from my account.
I deposited a check yesterday morning but then this happened! The fraud department at his bank says they will honor it but I can't wait and hope. Thank god I have a savings account that I was able to transfer money from to cover the amount of his check. I am hoping they do cover it and that I am able to transfer it back, but it can take up to 45 days to have his money returned to him!
This has made me realize having sepparate accounts is the best thing for us! I would never have changed it but with mone you should never have all your eggs in one basket, and you should always have an emergency stash!
