Re: Freedom card number stolen.....

Wow they maxed it out? Or did Chase suspect something and shut it down?

This is exactly why I only pay cash at places where the card leaves my sight, ie bars and restaurants.

Wow! You should check your other cards just to make sure the thief didn't use another one.

My USAA card got jacked while in Orlando. They overnighted a new one.
