I do Taxes by using a  program that charges me for each return actually
completed.  I sign up for each additional increment of cost by using an
online credit card.

I was doing a return when I got a call from the CitiBank folk (actually a
prerecorded machine....) asking if I had just charged some $30 odd
dollars....  It was not 2 minutes after I made the charge.....

BTW, the Company was Intuit...... of TurboTax fame......

In December, it was a real person calling asking if we had just charged $34
( three times....!) at a Post office.... which of course, we had not.
What does a bad guy buy at the Post Office for $34??  80-odd stamps?  Three
times?

Weird people out there.......
