I got a call yesterday from my bank.....it was a call that I thought I would never get.
The bank told me that someone in New Jersey got a hold of my card number and used it at Walmart and Target!!!
I was shocked and just kind of didn't know what to say!
She explained a little more to me and said we would have to cancel everything and get me a new account number and new cards. Then she asked me if I had any questions....I just sat there drawing a blank and couldn't think of anything to say. She "just said oh well okay then..let me know if you have any questions."
So, today I had to go into my bank and fill out some forms so they would reimburse me. I am so grateful that my bank knows what they are doing and staying on top of things! I from now on will not use my card as debit and do not want to buy anything online. A similar thing happened to my brother last week. America Express called him asking if he had approved of a purchase in another state the amount of $1,200. And another of $1,500. He said no and so they were actually able to catch that person. That person apparently made a card when he got his number. So he could use it.
Everyone....please be careful when using your card for ANYTHING!
There are really crazy and stupid people out there!
