long long story short, promise

i had a taste 

a bad taste

 of 

what its like to be a victim of identity theft 

long long story short 

i got an email from my cable provider

 advising

 they were implementing

 the changes to my account

 i made

 whoa

 i didnt make no changes

 no changes were made by moi 

two telephone conversations later

a 3rd receiver 

spanish language versions of several premium channels

 were removed 

a second password 

was added

 i still dont understand 

how 

someone knew i had that provider

 and

 had my home phone and/or address 

those 

were 

the only security used

to identify a subscriber

not any more

 i also worry

 what else this person knows or plans to do 

i feel very violated
