unauthorized credit card charges
« on: April 02, 2011, 09:16:11 pm »
Yesterday morning (4/1) I got a phone call from my bank and she said somebody used my credit card online. :confused1:
At first I thought it was April fools but it wasn't. It was only $75 but I was sooo pissed. :BangHead:
That $75 is going to be deducted from my account but the bank already paid me back the money so I don't have to pay for it but this isn't the first time so I'm very concerned. I hadn't been using my credit card for a while (I always use paypal now if it's available) but I just purchased a coupon at Gr***on and put my credit card number like 2 days ago. I think it's where they got my number :(
Luckily it was only $75, the last time was over $300 for USPS shipping or something. :dontknow: But it's still cheap compared to what happen to my mom. It was airline tickets that are over $1000. :sad1: She didn't have to pay for it though. :thumbsup:

It seems like card thefts are everywhere. Has anyone experienced it before too?

I have never experienced this. It was great your bank caught it for you.

I've had my info stolen from a compromised website, but never used.  I just used Groupon for the first time the other night, I better go check my account activity.
