So my purse was stolen from my car early this morning, ugh. I had to get up early to go to work. I walked out and our garage door was open (not by the thief, we have someone working on our roof so he has needed the garage open and long story short he didn't tell us he was leaving and we forgot to shut it) and the interior light of my car is on. Cue heart attack. I checked the doors on my driver side they were good. Then I walk around and see that my passenger door and my dad's drivers side door are ajar. I went into my dad to ask if he had been in the garage (semi hopeful) and he hadn't (all hope gone...whoosh). We both walked out to the garage to inspect further. Sure enough I looked into my car and my purse was gone and so was my debit card. We looked in his car and it had obviously been gone through but nothing taken (although his car is always so messy I doubt he knew for sure :]). Great. I had 10 minutes before I had to go to work so I ran inside to get on a computer to check my bank account, nothing major. I needed to leave by then so my dad offered to take of everything for me (I have a great daddy!). I went back out to my car to hurry and leave but can't. Remember what I first saw that was wrong, yeah the thief left the door ajar which left my interior light on killing my battery. Awesome. I am a little frantic now because it is early in the morning and I need to get to work and my day is already so AWESOME!!! So I run back in and tell my dad so he comes out with me to look at it. When we get out there we have no time so I ask him to just take me to work and keep me posted and let me know what I have to do. I spend the whole morning talking to banks and police officers and my dad. Luckily nothing is very bad news when I talk to everyone, just inconvenient. Then my dad picks me up at my break to take me home and jump my car.
We get home and start the jumping process and get my car going. Then we let it run and I had to take care of a few break time type things. My dad stayed out front to let our dog relieve himself. After doing this he walks into the house and in his hands is my purse!!! I immediately take it to look through it. A lot of things were still in there but it had obviously been gone through. Thoroughly. In jumps my Ricky type story. Anybody that knows my dad knows he has some pretty funny stories and if you want to hear the one that relates let me know. So when I say thoroughly I mean thoroughly. They took every possible thing out of my wallet and took my drivers license, gift cards, 2 account information cards, and my debit card. But then they also decided to look through my tampons and pads that I had for emergencies. They even dismantled the tampons!! Yes people I hide money in my TAMPONS!!!! Goodness. I saw this spectacle and showed my dad and said "your friend stole my purse!" (Again got to know his story to understand this, but made short he and his friend found a prostitutes purse when they were little and the friend went through the tampons and found money). We started to laugh and then I needed to call the bank because the thief had all my account info and I needed to freeze my accounts. I went through the rest of my day at work and then had a fun afternoon of going to the bank to terminate my account and start a new one. Then I had to go to the DMV to get a new license( which I am mad about because I didn't realize that they would want to take another picture and lets just say this one was really not flattering and showed that I was tired and mad).
All in all the thief got away with 4 charges on my card, gift cards, and my license. But that is not the only thing they have stolen from me. They have partially taken my sense of security. They have really inconvenienced my life for awhile now as I have to get a new bank card and watch out for fraud. I am over it but I still have to deal with it and the police. Really in my mind what kind of loser is this person that they are trolling neighborhoods at about 3 in the morning. The thing that really gets me is that their charges were sooooo stupid! For heavens sake they went to McDonalds!!!! What is that!!! LOSERS!!!!! Oh well I lived and I learned!! I will not be making the same mistakes again.

Sounds like they were some loser teenage boys. The reason they took your drivers license could be for some dumb reason like the fact that you are old enough to purchase beer or you could have identity theft on your hands. Your social wasn't on your DL was it? Did they have access to it at all in your purse? You might want to consider the lifelock service. Or call major credit card companines and tell them to ignore requests for a credit card from you.
