Was it directly off a CC or paypal? Also call your banks fraud department
Sparkle Kitty says
10 years ago
Or credit card company, whichever it was

Depending on your CC, lots have fraud protection.
Sparkle Kitty says

Call your cc company first, then LL. LL will disable your account due to fraud tho, so be prepared for that.

Of course !!!

But I would say to start contacting anything involving your CC,Debit, all of that asap so they cancel everything and file fraud.
as others have said contact your credit card company first thing. Report FRAUD. Then change all your passwords. Mail, Second Life, Bank Account al of them. Then contact LL

You will be ok. The cc will see it as fraud.

Paigey, I had to do the same thing. I had my accounts shut down due to chargebacks I didnt make. make sure your alt is on a different email, otherwise they will lock all your accounts
Anwenn Stirling

Also, any place you use the same password.. it's time to change that password. It's also possible that the email account you have listed on your account has been changed, or compromised, so check that too.
PaigeyPoo

I only use that password for SL so it's all good.
