So, oddly enough, reading the last couple threads and having probably a 6 year clean streak....my wife used her card somewhere and some assholes got the number. they put on about $500 charge to cabelas.
I talked to the credit card company, dispute the charge...not responsible for it blah blah blah. new card coming.

I call cabelas in hopes that I caught it soon enough and to see if I can get them to stop shipment. too late it go delivered yesterday as they paid (or used my card) for next day/2 day shipping.

Cabelas is kind enough to give me the shipping address as well as what they ordered (2 pairs of boots and some angler bibs)


So feeling nice, I just called the police department in Agawam Massachusetts. lady listens for a minute, then tells me that if I want to do anything I need to call my local police first, then they can handle it from there....I tell her these people are .6 miles away from their station....no dice.

just called the sheriffs office who is not far as well but they are closed, so i think I might call them tomorrow.


anyways, I'm curious, has anyone here gone to the level needed for the people to get caught? Is it even worth it for me to try? for the local LEO, have you have heard of a incident such as this where you guys follow through, file the police report, call the local police, get them to get a warrant, get into the house to verify the items are there or that they made the order, then bust them? I know the more the time clicks, the fast the items could be given out as presents, moved to another location, the trash taken out with the box/shipping label on it etc etc.

I'm not going to lose anything, but I want these assholes to lose a lot. their address is 22 cleveland st. Feeding Hills, MA 01030.
