Has anyone experienced unathorized trades in your Datek account? On Firday several purchases were made in one of our accounts, we had no pending orders for this stock and no positions long or short in this stock. Datek is investigating and I am sure will correct the situation. I just wonder if this is an isolated event or what?

Of course the company in question is in a nosedive and the spurious purchases (at the high of the day) promptly generated a big loss.
