Rant: **** Theives!

We had our card skimmed a few years back. Our bank called us as soon as it happened, cancelled the cards, replaced the money and opened new accounts the same day. I think Canadian banks have a different code of conduct regarding bank fraud than U.S. banks that is much more in favor of consumer protection. We were also contacted by the local police about the incident, where they thought the cards were skimmed and where the fraudulent transactions took place (Toronto). Sheep, don't be surprised if you get a call or visit from your local police because I'm sure the bank hasn't let the issue slide even though they've already covered your loss.

P.S. I'll start to worry if your little rocket gets into the 12's.

I wasn't the only person to have this happen to them that day. I think they'll be looking at the places people had shopped and try to found the common denominator.

BTW, another 2 grand on the engine swap and it'll do 12 easy.

What I would give to have a fully built JUN or Toda engine. Sorry for the hijack.

I thought you went subby. Toda VTEC killers are sweet, but apparently they don't make that much power.

I haven't had my identity stolen (yet), but I have had both my debit card and credit card numbers skimmed at some point. I do quite a bit of online shopping so it's just as likely that they were stolen that way, but maybe it was someone local at a restaurant etc. In both cases I caught it early and was able to get full refunds. I usually don't go more than 48 hours in-between checks of my bank web sites to look for suspicious charges.

One day you'll give into the VTEC side.

That really sucks Sheep. I haven't had my card skimmed yet, but I had some jackass use my CC number and rack up a bunch of charges. Without the card, they were able to charge $1500 in just a few days, which means they had to be working with the people who were permitting the charges. These kind of people are completely worthless.
