For the second week in a row, the Washington Healthplanfinder website is down, and it's causing problems for people who are dealing with billing issues. Some of them say the website is mistakenly debiting their accounts.

Shannon Bruner of Indianola logged on to her checking account Monday morning, and found she was almost 800 dollars in the negative. “The first thing I thought was, ‘I got screwed,’” she said.

If they get debited early and multiple times, they should expect to be first in line for treatments and have lower deductibles. I fail to see the problem...

The second thing she thought was, "The Russian Mafia is now $800 richer."

I don't get why anybody relays personal information on an UNSECURE website. I guarantee you a lot of "enrollees" will get messages from authentic looking insurance companies asking for they premium payments. This is the perfect scam for the Russian Mafia. I used to get messages from "PayPal" asking me to come to the site and log in. Except that the site was FAKE. Looked authentic. Same will happen with the insurance websites. Since the Russian Mafia can hack into the ObamaCare exchange, they will have valuable personal information at their fingertips.

ObamaCare website is the Russian Mafia dream come true.

"Shannon, I’d like to introduce you to Mr Reality. He’ll be bludgeoning you with this big stick every few days. If you are attentive, Mr Wisdom will walk in and help to soften the blows of Mr Reality’s stick."

That's beautiful! I'm stealing it. ;-)

I agree, they didn’t sound upset at all. Or maybe that’s the way it was reported? If it was some “evil” business that did that, they would have already retained a lawyer.

i thought this story was a satire, until i just saw it on Drudge ... ObamaCare is genuinely a disaster .... WHO (among working professionals) will trust their bank accounts with the Kenyan bastard?
