I've mentioned this before but Fidelity called me once concerning a possible hacking attempt from someone overseas. They created new accounts for me and of course I changed all my passwords. All came about due to virus on my pc. Just goes to show, keeping your anti-virus software up to date is a must. BTW, I ditched my old pc.

I do feel good knowing Fidelity has good security in place to monitor my account. But that phone call did get pulse rate up a little.
