...your credit card gets stolen.
Well you hope the bank will stop the continuing theft. Banks are pretty good about that these days.
And you might find some online purchases. Unusual purchases. Surprisingly, these unusual purchases had been shipped to someplace reasonably nearby.
Suddenly, it occurs to you that the last transaction where you gave someone your card number (as opposed to swiping it in person) was when you ordered pizza over the phone. Putting two and two together, you visit the pizzeria with the intent of tracking down the miscreant that had just wrecked your life.
Instead you end up talking to the manager during the middle of the afternoon. Then the mother of all coincidences occurs; the manager has to answer the phone to take a delivery order. And the caller is using your credit card number to pay for your pizza.
Head on over to The Moth's website and listen to the rest of the story from Tristan Jimerson.
It just gets better and better.
