I don't have proof at the moment, but I do have to agree with you, I'm not so sure I would believe thousands of dollars being charged on the account, hackers wont charge thousands from ONE person, they obtain multiple peoples info to minimize suspicion.
I can see if people were being charged 50-100$ but come on... 1200-1300$??..
Maybe its just me, but I'm not buyin' it.. I think its just some kids trying to throw in their "two cents".
