Here we go again!
using our credit card number!!!
I got an email from the issuing bank's fraud department. husband called them this morning and apparently there are over $1,000 in charges at a hotel, massage parlor, pizza, gas, and Woolworth's store today!
Since we have both cards in our posession, and they swiped the card for two of the transactions, the bank said somebody created a counterfeit card and was using it.
So now the account is closed and we'll have to wait a week or so for a new account and cards to be sent.
This has happened before to us, but it's been a long while. Just a royal PITA, more than anything. I'm thankful the creditors' fraud departments have become more proactive over the years.
