I don't understand how they got your bank info?
Did they then link it to THEIR PayPal account?
Did the bank say how they think they got your info?

I actually got more information from PayPal than from my bank. The bank is obviously involving their fraud detection division, and I gave them the info that PayPal gave to me. PayPal said that she established her account 3 months ago, but this was just done last Monday. They said there were not any other deposits into the account and that the account was verified through an automatic verification system they now use. There were no small deposit amounts in my account.

My password was not really weak, but I have used it for too long and have it on too many accounts. I guess it's now time to figure out and switch over to 1Password.
Wow, that is so scary. I hope they catch this person.
