this happened to me once (well, it happened to my then-girlfriend).

I take GREAT comfort in the fact that these types of crooks (credit card scammers) will get away with it for a while, but will inevitably get caught and end up spending enough time in a pound-me-in-the-ass prison to adequately quench my thirst for vengeance.

In my line of work, I deal with a great number of credit card frauds - most of them are not very bright (very few can pronounce the name on the cards, even if it's something simple like "Kevin"). My favorite was the guy who called up and told me his name was some chicks name - can't remember the name, but it was so obvious that he had stolen some woman's card but didn't realize the name he was badly mispronouncing was a woman's name. I couldn't stop laughing at him - normally we have to follow through with the orders to make everything seem normal, but I was laughing so hard I had to hang up.
