Identity theft scare

I received three text messages from my bank saying that I used my debit card somewhere.  Here's a list of what was spent:

  • 27,800 at a chicken gabli place
  • 32,000 at an E-Mart in Chuncheon
  • 22,950 at the same E-Mart

Of course, I wasn't in Chuncheon yesterday and I didn't eat chicken galbi.  I no nowhere near enough Korean and I've had trouble with my bank's English help line, so I didn't do anything about it until this morning.  I had my co-teacher call the bank and it turns out that my phone number was accidentally put in for another person's card, so I've just been receiving messages for their transactions.  So, Theresa Kim, if you read this, I hope you enjoyed your chicken galbi.
