And then we have people (stories on MUA recently) whose cards are being used to buy plane tickets to Hungary etc. who are having to find out under their own power when their cards get declined somewhere!

And that phrase 'suspicious activity' is the one used by all fraud scams these days, isn't it?<BR/><BR/>And yes, why can't they just say 'please call the number on the back of your credit card', because then you know you are definitely calling the bank.<BR/><BR/>Iguana's story makes sense, thogh, because people stealing credit cards are most likely to use them on bar-hopping. Serves you right, really, for acting like a card thief, LOL!Luluhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08166733963939080151noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14028331.post-1165478493041952342006-12-07T08:01:00.000+00:002006-12-07T08:01:00.000+00:00I had a bank call me about questionable activity o...I had a bank call me about questionable activity on a credit card before. I activated the card in the morning, then drove to the Florida Keys (little islands off the southern coast of Florida USA). The keys is a vacation destination, so there are a lot of bars. <BR/><BR/>I took my new credit card bar hopping. At the end of the day I made my way home, stopping at a few more places on the way back. <BR/><BR/>The next day the bank was able to help me retrace all the places I went to. Even the ones I did not remember about.The Lazy Iguanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12826083852416577162noreply@blogger.com
