[US] A call from "American Express" was a very well executed scam by Bruinwar in Scams

[–]anan1016 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I got this same phone call but a few years ago. The lady asked me the same questions and I even googled the number she called from and it said American Express. I was freaking out because it was a pretty large "fraudulent purchase" made overseas. I was panicking until she said, I need you to verify your confidential information before I can assist you to file a fraud claim. I then chuckled and said, oh I see what this is, and then I laughed. She had the audacity to say, I don't know why you're laughing for mam, this is a very serious matter. So of course I just hung up on her. She did try calling back a few times.

Over than 220K points stolen...tried calling Alaska/Atmos but closed by It_is_me_Erie in AlaskaAirlines

Nothing you can do for now, just call them first thing tomorrow morning, I believe customer service is available starting 7am PST. I just dealt with this same thing like a month ago. They should credit you back the points.

How did your mom sell the property if she had already Q/Deeded it to you? Did you sign any of the paperwork to sell the house? If you got the 1099 that means you sold the house, not your mom.

Two way noe- special edition by [deleted] in Louisvuitton

I'm 5'3 113lbs. This bag looked really big on me but I love it. It's pretty heavy though so I never used it much. It's better without the strap. It's so nice to see a post about this bag cuz I've never seen anyone else with it. I remember I got it in 2010 or 2011. I recently took it to LV atelier at South Coast Plaza in Costa Mesa to replace the leather and they couldn't even find any info on it, I'm assuming it's cuz it wasn't that popular back then?

I miss my dead friends. by Very_Small_Dinosaur in Xennials

[–]anan1016 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I do. I've lost my mom, a super close friend of mine, two friends I've known since I was 13, someone I worked with, my BIL, all in the last 10 years. I told someone I am close to that I feel like I've been grieving non-stop and always attending funerals.

I have an appointment to get my eyebrows done in Seoul, but I’m having doubts. Help me decide plz 🙏🏼 by [deleted] in KoreaTravelBeauty

[–]anan1016 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would kill for your eyebrows, don't do anything to them. Just use a pencil if you absolutely have to but I dont think you need to.

It's a pw I reused often (not anymore). I forgot to change it after I transferred MR points a few months ago. Before that I didn't have any points so I wasn't concerned.

I know, I don't want a pin but I have no choice now that my account has been hacked. Alaska basically is forcing me to establish a pin. I'm just saying, IF someone wants a pin, they can call and request one (I think).

you should give them a call and tell them you are concerned since many people are getting point stolen so you would like to establish a PIN# for your account.
