Fallen victim to debit card fraud - need your help
Last week, I checked my bank statement and noticed some transactions that I definitely didn't make. It turns out, I'm a victim of debit card fraud. Now, I've never been through something like this before, and I'm feeling pretty lost.
I've read some basic info on what to do next here https://consumerattorneys.com/article/why-debit-card-users-are-at-a-higher-risk-for-fraud, but I wanted to reach out to this community for some real-world advice. Have any of you been through a similar situation? What steps did you take to resolve the issue? How long did it take to get your money back, if at all?
I've already contacted my bank and reported the fraudulent transactions, but I'm not sure what to expect or if there's anything else I should be doing. Should I file a police report? Are there additional measures to secure my accounts and prevent this from happening again?
