Question

Shiprex · Accepted Answer

Yes. I was watching and on the phone to the bank while it was going on. I got it all back but while we were watching they were unable to stop payments from a town about 2 hours away in a business I had never been to.

Reverse side of my card with numbers for charging. I hot signed up to a sketchy website that was taking $20 a month, couldn't work out what it was.

The bank was basically unhelpful, went to them a few times. They were refusing to do anything about it claiming it was an escort agency or a pornsite or whatever. The told me I should contact this site to stop the payments, i was like you want me to go ask the people commiting fraud and stealing from me to stop taking my money? Was only when I told them id move my money to another bank and shut my account down by Monday that they took action and repaid the amount taken.

Not my bank account as such, but my PayPal account that was linked to my bank account. A payment was made via PayPal for the exact amount that was available in my bank account. I'm still puzzled how that could happen. My bank stopped the payment. No need to say I have zero trust in PayPal.

And my credit card was copied in a shop in London. Several days later, I got notification from my bank, saying that someone in the US was making large purchases using my credit card number. Again, the bank blocked these suspicious transactions.

I now use a credit card with limited funds (not linked to my account) for any online purchases, with the exception of Amazon and eBay.

Not my bank account but my amazon once

Someone tried to use it to order gift cards and it had my bank information so he basically had access to my money

But as soon as I reported it amazon refunded me instantly

Still it was a strange feeling of vulnerability

Technically, yes, but I knew I'd get it back. US cellular automatically withdrew 1500 dollars from it once. It was a glitch of some kind. What really sucked, is they said it could take up to TEN DAYS for them to redeposit it! It took seven.

Someone tried to withdraw cash with a copy of my debit card 7000kms from my actual location, bank cancelled it automatically.

Oh, so many times. I always got the money back but I eventually closed my bank of America account to open a Chase one out of my dissatisfaction with their security
