Credit card hacked


KarenPayne

932 views

Went to check the balance on my checking account two days ago and I found a charge that I did not recognize, called the bank and they are working on a resolution to get my money back. What I really like about my bank is, you walk in, tell them what happened then the cancel the card and create a new one on the spot.

I am extremely diligent with my card and the only time the card is out of my seight is when purchasing gasoline (Oregon is you can not pump your own) so it has me wondering if that is the case or when I did a online purchase at Victoria's secrets last week. Hopefully the bank will track down who is responsible for this.

Gets you thinking especially with all the hacking which has been going on recently

I just checked mine and they're fine. I probably look at them 2-3 times per week so I don't worry much. We've had a couple of minor instances in the past and all of the credit card companies did exactly what you describe: immediately cancel the current card(s) and send us new ones.

BTW, some years back we had a situation where we bought what we thought was an antique dining room table from a local vendor. We found out that it was not what they said it was and refused to take it back. The lucky thing was that we'd used a Visa card for its purchase. I disputed the charge, got an independent assessment of the table (which wasn't easy), and the money was fully refunded by Visa. Can't do that with checks or cash!
