Credit Card Fraud
Just had a call to say that some scumbag has done me for 2k.
Well nearly, the company that it happened with caught it out, so they have cancelled the order just meant i had to cancel my cards & on a bank holiday weekend as well

At least the bank clocked it. I noticed a transaction on my account a couple of years back that I didn't do, and get it refunded straight away - but still a little concerning as I rarely have time to check my statements!
Apparently CC fraud has risen sharply recently, so people really should check statements!
I also got charged twice for a tank of fuel a couple of years back - again lucky I noticed! Took the recept back to Shell to get a refund, checked statement and they managed to charge me AGAIN! Got the double refund and a bottle of wine off them in the end, but really goes to show that people should check statements!

I had £13,500 nicked when someone intercepted my new card, jacked up the credit limit and then drew £1000 cash from the bank counter every day plus £500 at the cash point!
Bank cleared the debt without a murmur.

I had some scummy ******, who served in a local petrol station, use my credit card details for to set up an online subscription ..to Penthouse Magazine...!! They must have thought I was some lesbian loner
I never used to checkmy CC statements... until I noticed the monthly amount being taken...took me forever to sort it out
