Oh, and Paris 18 months ago. Almost forgot that one! If only we could remember these amazing trips! Apparently we used Aeromexico airlines for our most recent trip and when we went to Canada we visited Vancouver.
18 months ago our bank caught some strange charges in Paris and we immediately realized we’d…well, basically been hacked, robbed, you name it. So we put an identity theft protection thingy-ma-bob on our “credit reports” and thought that would help.
….until we went to Canada a couple of weeks ago and Mexico yesterday. Man, with all of this traveling we are busy people I tell ya’! Sorry we didn’t get any photos taken to post for you to enjoy!
The good news is that the identity theft protection deal is working a little. It protected myself from myself. As you can probably imagine we are working on trying to purchase a new home and the loan officer we are working with where we are moving called me this morning and asked about our land-line phone number….a number that hasn’t been used in probably two years. It is there purely because it has to be for internet.
To protect myself from myself and to prove to them that I am who I am because of the identify theft program we have set up I have to answer the phone to that number~WHOA, that almost sounded like a Dr. Seuss rhyme! We’re gonna have to go buy a phone just so we can buy a house.
But boy oh boy…Paris, Mexico and Canada rocked!!!! (in my dreams!!!)
Identity theft is a bear. People are having the time of their lives, but under someone else’s name. Can it really be that fun? I’d be a nervous wreck the whole time, afraid of being caught.
Anyway, funny write up about it. Way to see the silver lining.
