Stuff with the Perl Foundation. A couple of patches in the Perl core. A few CPAN modules. That about sums it up.

It seems the people who were using my Discover Card information also racked up thousands on my Visa. This pissed me off. So I caught them.

Congratulations on finding them!

It would be really, really interesting to find out how they managed to get info on two different cards.

Sweet. Very sweet. Obvious question: Is it possible you remember one of the guys because he works behind the counter at some place you've once used your card?

  It's unlikely, but possible. I haven't used the Discover Card since November and I can't remember the last time I used the Visa. Unfortunately, since the cards are now canceled, I can't check the online history to find out where I might have used them.
All right Ovid! (Score:1)
