At least they took smaller amounts from you. The cleared my account completely!! I still don't know how they got my info because I'm pretty cautious. How can we stop them from doing this?

Do NOT trust any cancellation promises, as such scams will say anything to delay you past the 60 day FRB Reg. E or FCBA dispute periods during which your bank can just yank back their stolen money. Dispute with your bank, and follow up with a written dispute or fraud affidavit sent to your bank's dispute address from your statement.
Do NOT use checking accounts, debit cards, or check cards for any payments to anyone you do not know and trust. Limit their use to payments to trusted creditors such as rent, mortgage, utilities, etc. Use only credit cards for retail or online payments, as the fraud protections are stronger and it its less disruptive to block credit card numbers when fraud occurs.
