Ruth...actually I hadn't realized what it was either until last year about
this time...
and my credit card had been compromised for Iced Wear...a company selling
all that glitzy jewelry worn by rap artists, etc.   Here I am in the USA
and
my card was used by someone in the UK....who also tried to pay his montly
ISP bill with it!!!!...duh....Anyway ..it was caught right away when they
charged $1000.00 to my card ...and the next month as I said...my card was
used again--or they tried to...to chg. their internet connection.  I hope
they
found them...( they must have ! ) but sure would like to know what they
did to them.   ....btw....check out this if you want a  new look in
