You might be right. Recently one of my cards had several chipotle charges..one after the other...for about 3 weeks...stupid HUH.. well the card company just sent me a new card with a new number. They said Chipotle was the highest among CC incidents. I asked if they were going after them, it was so obvious, they said NAW!. I was a bit shocked Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was a bit shocked My card was stolen and used in a jewelry store to buy expensive trinkets....15 minutes after it was stolen. The bank was only interested in me signing an affidavit before giving me a replacement card. I started asking questions as to what they were going to do to investigate it (jewelry stores almost always have a lot of cameras). They weren't interested in my questions. I went to the local police to report it as it was apparently associated with a local gang and I wanted the incident recorded. The policeman I spoke to looked at a map of the city and put a thumb tack over the place where my card was stolen. He then replied that no report would be written and "if they got my card back they would call me to come get it." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had one station near work that had compromised card readers. Distract the clerk and do the old switcheroo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There have been incidents when a card reader has been inserted into an ATM slot. You slide your card into the ATM not knowing that it's going through a reader as it gets into the machine. A very small camera then watches you put in your pin #. Edited July 27, 2020 by Continental 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best guess was I used it some place and that place got hacked. Credit Union that issued the card was mainly interested in the signed statement that I didn’t do it so they could recover from the travel agency where the tickets were issued from. CUs Rep said probably someone at the travel agency was involved with the theft and they would file a report with the appropriate fraud watch agency. Could have been an overseas travel agency I don’t know 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
