UPDATE:

Of course, the charges were immediately erased and no payment due and received a follow-up statement showing zero balance.

Fast forward to yesterday I received my new BLACK Bloomingdales Card in the mail to thank me for being a big spender with Bloomingdales

Now I earn major bonus points per dollar spent and get free shipping and free returns (2 day I believe) and some other perks!

hehe

I just saw this because for some reason my "Mail" and Myfico don't like eachother anymore and all messages go straight into my deleted mail folder even though I have not even seen them... I even tried creating a mailbox "Rule" for all Myfico emails... Any thoughts from a smart computer person?! you can pm and I will get it in a day or two

$11K just for 2 freakin handbags??!!! I would've passed out in front of the computer!!

@OP ; Did you have chip (emv) on your card? I read that banks are not liable to cover any fraudulent charges on cards with such chips and that merchants are. Banks cover losses for frauds on non-chip cards. You would think that merchants would ask for an ID with such a big purchase right? Well obviously they didn't!!
Makes my friggin blood boil knowing that someone got away with $11K worth of stolen merchandise!! And that my friend is one of the reasons why we all pay such a high APR on CCs!

Who are you kidding, lmao, I pay 0.

If you are a theif, this is what you do.   In that context I don't see this as particularly shameful, ripping ofg a big store or a bank is, IMO, a lot less shameful than defrauding an old person of their life savings for example.   Not that they might not do that too!

But it is interesting that the banks require almost no verification.

I would say being a thief is shameful especially for products that are totally uneccesarry.  If you were stealing food for your family to eat that is one thing.  But ridiculously expensive purses you should have shame.

I assume the intent is to fence them, rather than keep and use them.
