Reminder to keep track of your bank account.

I was just alerted by my bank about fraudulent charges on my bank account. They got me for $800 before the bank caught it. I got it back but watch your bank account. My situation came from Denver Colorado.

$800
My bank would have notified me also…
Not because of fraud, but because I would have been waaayy overdrafted.

My debit card was only used on Amazon and one other service. I have killed the Amazon subscription

Never use a debit card for any transaction whatsoever besides ATM withdrawals and do these at a bank and not a gas station.
90% of fraud would be eliminated if people just followed that rule.
"But credit cards and Dave Ramsey said..." pffft.

I have learned this lesson

Doesn't have to be with a debit card. Some group generated, poorly I might add a check with my account number on it and it went right through even without my signature on it. If I had not seen the charge on my online statement and reported it, it might not have ever been noticed. I wasn't the only one hit with this.

Same thing just haopened to my girlfriend tonight. PlayStations being bought on Amazon. Alerts from her Wells Fargo account caught it relatively quickly though. 1 authorized and the 2nd authorization caught their attention. Immediately froze her account.

That's the problem...You make a purchase and the vendor has a person that skimms the card number. I made a law enforcement report and he told me it was impossible to catch

My parents sent a check to my cousin to help her buy new tires. Her drug addicted daughter saw the check, took a pic of it with her phone, and fraudulently accessed their bank account. The bank replaced 6000 dollars and the girl is now a convicted felon. The advice to keep track of your bank account is solid.

I just keep it at that.
Don't even have one.

I don't know about that. Stealing a cc number is just as easy as stealing a debit card number.
But it sure is easier to deal with if it does happen.

Thank you for this post….with all of the Christmas activity on most people’s cards, I’ll bet most wouldn’t notice the fraud until it was too late.

My situation involved 4 separate $199.99 charges. Apparently, they were trying to see how far they could go before my account would reject it.

Don't use a physical debit card. Put the card info into your phone and use Apple, Google, or Samsung pay. At a store, you just tap your phone on the terminal to pay. It cannot be skimmed this way. In fact, the card number is not even transmitted to the vendor.
Of course, you can also use a credit card as they handle all the fraud for you. If you're a guy who has no problem paying off the balance every month, it's a good way to go. Of course, some people cannot control themselves and end up in big debt with credit cards.

Where do they get this shite delivered to? Does any of the CC companies pursue that? It'll be refunded to the customer by the bank, but what about the delivered goods? Who's following up on that? No one.
