ADVENTURE LOCATION:
DECATUR, ALABAMA
POINT MALLARD PARK
DATE: OCTOBER 17, 2024
The morning was very brisk. But the sunshine was wonderful. The illness the OFM had turned out to be some diarrhea caused by bad food the day before. About 1400 that all cleared out and the OFM has been fine since.
Since we have no transportation and cannot get a return phone call to find out what is going on with Sierra, today was a piddle around day with several short mile length walks wondering what to do next. At least the OFM is not sickly any more. Hopefully tomorrow will have better news to report. After two days we are not expecting the shop to know exactly when they will finish but at least let me know some idea of time frame of the situation. Like we will be at least two more days or tomorrow afternoon or whatever. Is that more than I should ask for?
Just to break up the excitement we got a call about a credit card we have being involved in a big scam someone is running involving Walmart Internet Shopping. Sure enough we were involved in the card numbers being illegally used. The good news is Walmart and some other folks caught it about two weeks ago and have shut it down. Now the OFM card is already shut down and another one on the way to us. This only involved Walmart shopping by mail delivery. We never do that so it was easy to be spotted. Supposedly the scammed money will be credited back to us within a month. The OFM is wondering how they got his card number since the card never leaves his possession. Watch out folks the crooks are getting sneakier by the month.
Thank heavens that is all the excitement for today.
Have a great day.
Had many Cards compromised. The first time was when we got fuel. The next few times the Cards I had never used had been Hacked.
ReplyDeleteIf the dealership fixed the transmission and it is faulty again, they should give you a loaner with no charge for this.
Be Safe and Enjoy!
It's about time.
Thanks for the info.
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear you are feeling better and the fraudsters have been thwarted. Hopefully, there will be good on the Sierra today and you'll be motorvatin' and back on the road again. Take care and send a message now and then.

Hello Greg. It has been a long time. I hope you are doing well.
DeleteCancer, heart attacks, but I ain't pushing up daisies yet. I figure someone has more plans for me. Next time you're by this way, stop in. "twould be good to see ya! stay safe!
DeleteI agree with Rick,the shop should be supplying a loaner.Your card may have been compromised by an RF scanner-there are wallets with protective foil in their construction but aluminum foil inserted in your current wallet so that the cards are within the "envelope" also works. Hope all your vehicle issues are resolved soon & you can start your journey : all the best.
ReplyDeleteThank you for your comment.
DeleteIf you used a credit card to pay for the tranny, and they can't seem to fix it, you could start a "chargeback" case with them for not providing what you paid for. This would get their attention in a hurry.
