I thought it was interesting how much the FBI wanted to paint this as a natural and normal part of their job. If I'm dumb enough to leave my computer vulnerable to the world and someone steals my credit card data, is the FBI going to come help me investigate too?

You're being rhetorical, but yes, citizens and companies can and do regularly report internet crimes to the FBI and have them investigated. Normally the FBI would want to see monetary loss of e.g. $50k (arbitrary number I just chose) before they start caring, so your credit card probably isn't going to cut it.

You seriously think that your debit card is on the same playing field as this attack? Get real, the FBI doesn't care about your checking account, nor should they.
