@Anonymous  I had a similiar experience a few years ago with Discover. The card was never out my possesion and not used on the internet.  I had logged in to check the statment balance. I saw on the statement a charge for $650.00 from a company I did not recconize. Usually if I spend $650.00 I would remember doing so. I called Discover  and was transferred to the fraud department they did not have any additional information on the company.  Fraud department tells that there are 2 additional charges not yet posted  that were not mine either.  Combined total of around $1000 in charges.  They went through their usual process of identifying me and making sure all the charges were mine as well.  When there is fraud on a credit card reported  or verified by the consumer, I do not know of creditor that will allow the account to stay open. 

Glad it was caught. 


That means an inside job.... or gas pump skimmer

Same here. I think a more appropriate title would've been Discover Card FraudSmiley Tongue

 

Sorry about the headache Dino, but at least they caught it and took care of it!

Re: Discover Card Hack

I do not use a debit card either. Discover on their home page when you log in, under profile, go to manage alerts. I have my card set to the lowest amount. Rather I have card in possession or not, I get a text immediately for the amount and retailer/grocery, wherever I'm shopping. It eases my mind knowing I'm alerted as soon as it is swiped or purchased online.
