Ive been robbed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!the swines

Hiya lovelies.........im in a right mood..and upset as i have been robbed of over £200-00p out of my MasterCard...?????????????????????? dont know what else to say..they at Virgin cant do much till 4th Oct to see if this company or person from SINGAPORE...ER!!!!!!!!!!!! has tried to cash a pending transaction of over 321 dollars..lord knows who these people are but i haven't stopped crying since i got back from shopping when my card was refused..er i loaded it myself yesterday.(its a pre pay card so i wont get in debt) but as i knew i was taking my grandson shopping for his birthday pressie.i don't like taking lots of cash ..luckily i had enough cash on me for all the bits we bought...and was dumbfounded when M&S said my card was declined ... and checked my account as soon as i got home i had 7.16p left...no bloody wonder some sodding thief had wiped me out and at 8-17 last night...i was watching the secret millionaire...about that time.....im gutted..i just hope its a mistake on someones error...but i feel violated out of my hard earned cash....anyway not much else i can do till 4th oct and they will open a fraud investigation if they try and take my money....i just can believe my luck...but we did have a super afternoon and this is the first time ive shopped with my everso patient wonderful 19year old grandson Chris.....sorry to go on...but whatever you do be everso careful..but saying that i am...and there are some clever swines out there...just have to wait now and see what happens.......love you all xxxxxxxxxx
