Anyone ever have money mysteriously deducted from your debit account?

Well, turns out, somebody in South Dakota made a purchase online using my debit number.. have no idea how they got it considering I only use my debit card at ATMs.. They canceled the online order, and the money never got to the point where it actually left my account.. I've been told I can press charges, but am wondering if thats even worth the time.

skimming maybe? you must have that there? they put a little device on the atm get your card number and your pin. or maybe somehow they've managed to hack into your computer and get the number? or maybe into one of the online sites where you've used your card? maybe they hacked into the bank?

anyway, I'm glad the bank is onto it and have cancelled the transaction.
I know it's a pain in the arse, but I'd be pressing charges.

I'm glad it's sorted though LAO. It's so stressful!
