Contact your bank immediately to dispute all fraudulent charges and close the account to prevent future fraudulent charges.
Do NOT have or use debit cards or check cards, as the consumer protections are weaker and the money leaves your account immediately possibly causing problems with other creditors you may have written checks to. Use checks only to pay companies you already know and trust, such as rent, mortgage, utilities, CC companies, etc. Use ATM cards only at ATMs of the bank you have the account with. Use only credit cards for all retail or on-line purchases, since they are easier to dispute and less disruptive to close.
The banks claim debit cards are safe, that you are not liable for unauthorized charges. The banks lie.
It is still a hassle when someone steals from your account, and you can still be damaged even if the bank eventually gives you your money back. If you read their fine print, their actual warranty is weaker than their advertising.
