WTF? Bank Account weirdness

This is fucking weird. The IRS just deposited a shitload of cash (well, a few hundred dollars, really) into my checking account. That transaction description is for some unknown chump living in some other state. I'm about to call the bank now to see what's up.

If it were a couple mil I'd close up my account and move to a non-extradition country, but in this case how the fuck does shit like this happen?

Is my bank account compromised? Ie- can they pull my own money out of my account as easily as they put it in other peoples money?

(edit- maybe the chump wrote down my bank acct in error? some monkey at the bank miskeying acct info?) stupid hold muzak....

Are you digging the Kiwi burger with beetroot?

Damn, if this happened to me in NZ I'd have, like a fleet of 8 pirate vans :D

Meh, beetroot is ok, but what I really miss is the wholesome, overly-friendly pseudo-religious service by pimply 15 year olds on speed.

bah, the 15 year old on speed is overrated. Have you been over to captain d's fish and chips yet? It's near the uni on Ilam rd. The service from a old asian man on speed using a deep fryer is much more entertaining.

More than likely, some moron made a mistake filling out the direct deposit account number information on his tax return form. Don't worry, they WILL find you.
