    Fed Chief Bernanke Victim of ID Theft Ring I mentioned before about the scam software website that likely cares more about stealing credit card and personal information than sending people anything. Although, they might still send people pirated software so that people don't get suspicious and start checking their credit card bills. Also, when ordering anything on the net with a credit card, I strongly suggest that people use a temporary/virtual/limited card number. As I said, I use temporary/virtual card features from both CitiBank(for my MC) and Bank Of America(for my Visa).

The magazine, citing court documents, said the central bank chief became entangled in the scam after a thief stole his wife's purse in August of last year and began cashing checks on the family's bank account. The purse-snatcher was working for a crime ring that federal agents and police in several U.S. states had been investigating for months, Newsweek said, adding that Bernanke's wife, Anna, was not specifically targeted. It said the theft of the Bernanke checkbook became part of a wide-ranging identity-theft investigation by the U.S. Secret Service and U.S. Postal Inspection Service which had been previously underway. Newsweek said the probe culminated in a series of arrests, criminal complaints, and indictments brought by federal prosecutors in Alexandria, Virginia. One of the group's ringleaders, Clyde Austin Gray, known as "Big Head," pleaded guilty to conspiracy to commit bank fraud last month, Newsweek said. Gray employed an army of pickpockets, mail thieves, and office workers to swipe checks, credit cards, military IDs, and other personal records, it said, citing his plea agreement and other cou
