You will now have to keep a very close watch on your credit report. In addition to compromising your bank account, you also gave them enough info to assume your identity. The first thing you need to do is contact the credit reporting agencies and attach a "fraud alert" to your credit report. It's not foolproof, but it may keep legitimate lenders from opening accounts to imposters. Do not waste any time. Do this right now! As you've learned, it's a bad idea to give out personal information on the internet when you don't know exactly who you're dealing with.
