Fraud!

I was checking my bank account today, and discovered two large charges going to Barnes and Noble- $342.43 on 12/26 and $345.59 yesterday. I called them up and got bounced around a bit, before eventually talking to a supervisor in their fraud department. Turns out, someone had made a couple of online orders, one of which was sent to Illinois and one somewhere else. They had suspected fraud on the orders, and had even interecepted one of them. I asked the supervisor if they sold things other than books on the website... maybe the thief had purchased something that could easily be fenced? He said that Barnes and Noble did in fact sell other things, but that these particular orders were in fact books. What kind of books? BIBLES. Go figure.
