My Barclays Ring Got Jacked!!!

Checked my acct this morning and found SIX temp authorizations on my Ring that I knew nothing about. One was $300 from Macy's. I called customer service in a panic and was told that thankfully the charges were declined because they didn't have all my info. I'm assuming zip code. But that they would show under temps for up to a week. No affect on available balance. This is my daily card so there's no telling when it got cloned. My roommate's Wells Fargo DEBIT card number was stolen this past weekend and she lost almost $400. Wells Fargo said it would take up to TEN days to refund. That is why I refuse to use my debit card. Be careful folks and check your accounts. These scumbags are out in full affect!! Smiley Mad

Got a brand new Chase saphire account and kept it in SD for up two 3 months now, never used it even once, next thing i see is a charge for 9.99 for spotify, called custumer service and got transfered to security department, she said, they have probably guessed a random number and it happened to be me in this case, had to cancel this account number and wil get a new card, and thats only after 3 months of getting a new number and a new card.

This is my second card to be compromised. Both Barclays. Weird!!!! Hopefully this whole chip and pin conversion next year will cut down on all this fraud.

That's so weird because the same thing happened to me with my CITI Diamond card. On Saturday i decided to use the card for the first time since I got it 2 months ago. I made 2 purchases, grand total was $80. I come home to check my account and see $900 worth of pending charges. I made sure I didn't lose the card. I quickly called in and had the situation taken care of.

Wow!! Sorry to hear that!! That's why it's so important to stay on top of your accounts.
