losing your wallet

I lost mine my freshman year of college. A friend of mine was going out of state for school in the morning so we stayed up late at her parents house. Evidently at some point during the night my card case (didn't carry a wallet at the time) fell out and in between the couch cushions. We both leave at ~4am and I spend a good portion of the day searching my car and my house. Ended up getting a call from her mom later. That was awkward. -
On a couple of occaisions I lost my wallet.
First time was shortly after HS finished and I was hanging with my GF and a few of her friends in a park. We were on the swings for a bit, then took off.
Later that night I realized I was missing my wallet. So a buddy of mine and I went back to the park and sure enough it came out of my back pocket while I was on the swings.
This other time happened when I was with my current GF and I had my 86 325es (back on 01). She convinced me to go for a romp in her bed and I hadn't taken off my pants yet. So we get down to business then the following morning I get up and leave and go to class. All day I was freakin cause I couldnt' find my wallet and 1)my insurance ran out at midnight that day,2) I was running low on gas 3) I was hungry dammit!
I went to a different branch of my bank and I pleaded with the teller my situation that I was a scotiabank customer. Luckily a manager was overhearing our conversation and she knew my family from my home branch that my parents have used since the early 80's. She recognized the names I gave her of my parents and siblings and then proceeded to give me enough to put gas in my tank, get some grub and renew my insurance for a few more months (500 or so?).
Now I realize how lucky I was to get that service since today I'd be SOL without a stitch of ID.
Turns out the wallet was in her bed the whole time

Like all technology, it's progressively getting more intricate. IDK, the average Joe doesn't have a skimmer, so those who do should know how to use it and what they have obtained. I'm not a wiz but you don't need a pin for online purchases, if it's a ring they could have dumped your account internationally, etc. I dunno, just seemed foolish on his part-lucky for you.
btw, shady is 5 characters. You only put four "x's" :DLeave a comment:

4. low tech. buy one on ebay for 200bux. What data to use?
The pin number isn't on the card. That's why you cover your hand when you do pins.Leave a comment:

Dude Jordan shorts can be quite slippery. I was in SD with some friends, we ventured into Tijuana as usual one night and my buddy's wallet slipped out in the taxi. Naturally we panicked and thought he was fucked getting back over the boarder.
I asked a Mexican BP guard (intimidating as fuck) what happens from there and he laughed saying "Better go get a hotel guys."
...Let's just say-luckily he's black as night so the customs agent believed us.
I would shit a Frisbee sideways if I lost my wallet in Mexico, that whole "Miami darkness" thing wouldn't work for me LOL.
1. Explain xxxx, I can think of a lot of things to fill in.
2. Wendy's gave it back if I read that correctly?
3. You should have tried to get security footage of who found it.
4. Card skimmers are high tech yet simple, essentially a key logger for cards, but if he was smart enough to do this, how was he not smart enough to put his data to use...or even know that there are daily limits lol...
ex.) Wells Fargo is $300Last edited by Rsully70sev; 08-29-2012, 09:13 PM.Leave a comment:

Lost my wallet at a wendys in a part of town that was densely populated of the xxxx persuasion.
Later on I called and got it back. To my surprise non of the cash was missing
or cards missing.
1-2 days later somebody tried to take 500bux out
of the atm. Lucky they didn't have the passcode. Somebody there
has a card skimmer and took my info.
If you lose your wallets please get new cards ASAP.
and cover your hand when you use your pin nomatter where you are.Leave a comment:

Lost my wallet a year ago. Got drunk on a cabin trip in WV, riding in the bed of the truck to the store. Jumped out and it must have fell to the ground. After we moved to Foxes for some awesome pizza, found out that it wasn't in my back pocket. (Wore cargo shorts with loose pockets) Panicked for a few days. Later that week it arrived at my doorstep in the mail. They took the 250$ in cash out and messed around all my cards but I got it back. So lucky they shipped it back.
Now I always check to make sure I have it in my pocket, or keep it in my side pockets.Leave a comment:

I thought someone stole $40 out of my wallet today cause my cash was nowhere to be found.
Texted my household members and they thought it would be funny yo wrap it up in AFB pass I keep in my wallet. I was pissed.
I started wearing my keys around my neck since I posted before. I have a lot of keys and need to narrow shit down.Leave a comment:
