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.![](https://images.tigerdroppings.com/Images/Icons/Iconusaflagsmiley.gif)

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.![](https://images.tigerdroppings.com/Images/Icons/IconLOL.gif)
