Thanksgiving ATM fraud

Got hit today. Took money out an ATM this morning which must have been setup with a scanner. By the time I checked my account at lunch time the thieves had taken in excess of $10,000 and the bank never picked up on it.
Phoned US Bank and they kindly informed me there's nothing they can do today because it's Thanksgiving.

Why do you have that much money in checking?

I got a text from Iberia bank...which I don't bank with...telling me that my ATM card has been temporarily blocked. Don't know if its some scam because it came with a link to click, but I'm about to call Iberia and see whats up.

My response to that was "Well that's nice but it doesn't seem to be a holiday for the thieves"

True. I was lucky I caught it when I did and was able to transfer some out.
My bigger problem will be getting another ATM card. I live outside the US.

Yet another reason to use credit instead of cash.
$10,000? Banks have limits on these things.

I deposit the bulk of my 10k checks directly to savings and only a grand or so into checking to avoid this.

It was at an ATM. Very few places accept credit cards where I live.

Same happened to me. But they took $20,000 from me. Good thing I had my safe in my Ferrari at the time.

Unless you're a hooker, I don't believe you.
Nice subtle brag thread though.

It's the only way I can get cash here easily. I'm here full time now so I'm not carrying large sums back from the US like before.
I was planning on opening up an international account here tomorrow. Too late.
