Before any other details, my personal guess is that your bank made some  
change to how they prepare the OFX file.  I would suggest calling them  
just in case they know and are willing to say anything, although I  
consider that unlikely.  Also, do you know of anything else that  
changed recently that might have an effect on this?  (

There have certainly been reports of repeated imports not matching,  
although I do not recall any issue of all amounts being negated (the  
inversion you see.)

To help, we need some additional information.  Are you using libofx or  
aqbanking?  Are you importing a downloaded ofx file, or using direct  
connect?  If you import the file a third time, does it match the second  
import, or create yet a third copy of each transaction?  Can you  
provide one example of the section of the ofx file for just one of the  
transactions?  Be sure not to include any sensitive information such as  
account number or password, but those should not occur within a  
transaction.

Another question - do you import ofx files from any other banks, and if  
so, do you see the problem with them, or only with this one credit card?
