Question about potential fraudulent charge on my debit card account?
Posted on 8/1/19 at 9:53 pm
Posted on 8/1/19 at 9:53 pm
I’ve used my debit card once this week since being out of town. I purchased just over $5 worth of items at Target.
I’m now seeing a charge of $60 at a pharmacy (located in same city as I am in currently - out of town) that I have never stepped foot into.
Is it reasonable to think that my card may have been hacked at Target? Or purely coincidental? How does this work (fraud)?

Call your cc company, report it, and they will correct the charge, cancel your card and issue you another one.
ETA: Just saw it was a debit card. Not sure if you’ll get money back.

Are you retarded?

Don't think of it as fraud. Think of it as advance reparations.

Your wife was just buying pregnancy kits and didn’t want to run into someone she knew. I wouldn’t worry about it

Had that happen also. Took place this morning
Bank caught it first and contacted me
Some assclown tried to spend $400 at a RiteAid in California
Getting new card

Call them and tell them you'll only pay $40.00. If they play hardball, walk.

Probably some transgender that was there to use the bathroom.

Why anyone swipes a debit card I will never understand

Yes it’s fraud. Very common now at Walgreens and other places with gift cards.
Most likely got hacked while at Target.
Your bank, by law, will reimburse you within 72 hours once you report it.

This. It happened to me one time and I called them and they canceled my card immediately. FWIW mine was a debit card and they reimbursed me for the charge.

Credit cards are insured unlike debit cards. It will be up to your bank to decide if they will reimburse you. I dropped Bank of America because they refused to reimburse me once for some fraudulent charges.

Are you 5?
Ask your wife if she bought anything.
If she didn’t, think long and hard for 10 minutes about what you’ve spent money on.
If you still can’t figure out who spent the money, cancel your card and go take it up with your bank.

If they didn't use the PIN number it rides VS/MC credit guidelines and you're covered. Bank will process a chargeback and you'll get your money back.
If they used your PIN, you're basically out of luck. Much more difficult to commit fraud while using a PIN.
You'll never know the source of how your data was obtained. And it is NOT safe to assume because you used your card at Target, that they are the source of your breech.
There are thousands of ways card data gets stolen including finding vulnerable online vendors and running scripts to run through card numbers to find valid ones. There are lots of safe guards against it but it happens at times.

So the charge took place out of town, while you were out of town? Yet the most recent use was at a Target where you live? Seems quite the coincidence that someone stole your card and ran away to use it in the same place you are now visiting. Highly highly unlikely. Are you sure no one got a hold of your card sometime on your trip? Were you in an airport? Sometimes those airport kiosks and stores show up with weird names.

You went to target to scope out milfs and munch on 2 bags of popcorn huh?
Solid.

Call and report to your bank. If your bank is worth a crap, you will be reimbursed. I have Capital One and was refunded the same day.

How did you only spend $5 at Target?
