However, apparently I can't always read my writing. I had a new password for my credit union but it didn't work. They took forever to send me the code so my session timed out but I finally got a new password so I could check my statement. I tried to order something from Amazon last week, and they didn't take my password. When I tried again, the password was already there (my computer remembers some of them), and Amazon took it. They sure make everything hard!Sally from PAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03649707016754971847noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1001156153899984046.post-64224947248884768232022-05-02T17:19:03.755-04:002022-05-02T17:19:03.755-04:00Ha ha ha ha!

I've actually only lost one credit card and has someone make a charge on it, but I was able to fix that quickly. And yet, I have that dream every so often where I look in my wallet after coming back to my purse, and it's been emptied of the cards.<br /><br />I probably should be using the two-factor identification, but I just hate multiple steps to access things. My niece had her identity stolen, and it was one hot mess getting that fixed, so I should be more inclined to protect myself. I haven't had a card refused when on vacation or in a different spending locale than usual, but I have gotten notifications that the card is being used in that different location. My husband worries me a bit, as he is forever looking for a misplaced card of his. Maybe I should limit him to carrying cash.

How old was I then? etc. (I expected them to ask for my eye color and shoe size!). When I go this same request three more years I filled it in and then added a note: "You have asked for this information four times now. Kindly file it where you can find it next time."<br />As if that isn't enough, I am named after my mother. She went by "our" first name and I go by the middle name. That worked fine until the computer age: first name, middle initial, last name. <br />It gets challenging to figure out what name they are looking for!Libby Doddnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1001156153899984046.post-17259154322724749382022-05-02T14:00:19.699-04:002022-05-02T14:00:19.699-04:00Apparently, Google wants us all to stay safe, sinc...Apparently, Google wants us all to stay safe, since it keeps making so many of us Anonymous.

So, I go through the process of setting up a new password, have to record that...over and over. I recently got an email saying a new piecde of computer hardware was being sent and thanks for the roughly $2000 order. It had a link, which made it suspect, but part of me is still worried that one of my credit cards will show a fake purchase this month.
