Over the years we've had people steal our CC info and charge stuff, usually online. CC companies close the account, send us new cards and we've never had to pay a nickel. It's the people who sold the merchandise who get stuck with the tab as the CC companies reverse the payment of funds.
The fraud detection is pretty good these days. I once got a call from a CC rep saying my card was being used right then at a jewelry store in CA. My wife was at a conference in the city and was buying a souvenir. Couple of months ago was getting into my car after buying gas near Mackinac Island, couple of hundred miles from home. Before I was even in the car, wife was getting a text message from the CC company checking for fraud use.
Well, last nite, there was a new twist. I got a voice mail from one of our CC companies about fraud alert. Yelled upstairs to ask the wife if she was buying anything online, answer was no. Called the company and they asked if I had changed my address the day before? Nooooo. Did you change your phone number? Noooo. Did you buy a bunch of Karaoke equipment the same day? Nooooo.
Uh, oh. They changed everything back, added a password to the account, will get new cards, they'll disallow any transactions that come through. The rep said they tried to open a Paypal account with the card also.
Also put a 90day fraud alert with the 3 Credit Reporting Agencies and got a free Credit report (still clean and green).
When the rep asked if she could do anything else for me, I said "Yeah, execute the people responsible". She said "Uh, we DO prosecute to the full extent of the law". I offered to supply the ammo and pull the trigger. Wife listening on the extension was NOT pleased. :lol:
