Y'all ever have someone steal your credit / debit card info?

[Serious]

So I'm at Six Flags with the fam, and I get call from some 800 number, I get the message and it's tell me about some fraudulent purchases, and I'm thinking oh, that's just because I just dropped 3 bills as at six flags for a flash pass, no biggie. In the past I've hit up gas stations out of my usually neighborhood and gotten those same calls. So I'm listening to the recent purchase, just in case, at first everything is cool, because i hear some shyt from six flags that I just bought, but it starts listing victoria's secret, walmart,jcpenny, payless, etc. And this is some local shyt too. In a city outside of LA, the LBC. I pretty much know where the leak is at. The only reason I won't pull-up is because I can get my money back, but a lesson learned, that I'd be doing a lot more hand to hand cash transactions.


Peeps spent a little over $600 within 24 hours smh....

Spoiler

Anyone else have any similar stories....

Not credit card info, ssn. Was living with friend splitting a house. He starting dating this crazy ass bytch, she took it upon herself to go through my room and find something with my ssn on it. She proceeded to file a joint tax return saying her and I were married and living at the same address.

I found all this out after I moved out when I got letters from the IRS and State Tax agency after I tried filing my own single return. Took years to get that shyt sorted out, had to file ID theft with IRS and now get a special code for filing taxes.

Bruh I came in here ready toabout someone getting my Amex and spending $600 on Six flags and walmart 5 years ago, but your situation looking similar.

I have no idea when they got it, because I still had my card, and my ass got ripped off heavy in an hour period. Based on the fact they knew my zip and the purchases were super close,

it had to be a mothafukka from the corner store right near me, so someone I saw on the regular.

Almost got into it with a homie years later cause I called him a scumbag for debit card scamming. He was feeding EVERYBODY with that money though...but you still a fukking snake

ass thief.

Some nikkas cracked my DEBIT and charged 5 racks at apple in Yonkers (I live in dc) and some online store. They must have duplicated it because there were atm withrawl fees too

I don't even use my debit card

I hear you. See I know where it the leak came, because I don't have many transactions. I keep it simple. The timing and everything points exactly to the leak. I'm just not sure if I can handle myself...

Jesus......
I hear ya, I don't even use my debit card like that either. I mean I was busy around Christmas, but I shut that shyt down after once I was done shopping. My debit transactions are literally gas and the supermarket.

Hope you got funds back in a timely manner.

 

[TELL ME YA CHEESIN FAM?]

Yeah be careful using ATMs and swiping your shyt at shady gas stations

Who shops at Payless with stolen debit card info?

 

[Zero]

Few times before but nothing Bank of America couldn't fix immediately. Hasn't happened in years now

I never thought I would be a victim of it and never thought somebody would do something like that. A friend that is a CPA says it happens all the time.

I think the State went after her, I didn't ask much I just wanted my shyt straightened out.

yo that's one thing, I'm still smh at. At least go to foot locker or some shyt. These mofo was cocky enough to sit down at a restaurant too.

I wonder wtf they were in the process of buying when they got cut off.

My roommate used to fukk with strippers, those hos are I pitched an old credit card while one of them was home alone. Came home the card was out of the trash pieced together next to the phone It was a closed account though

You guys sound like someone was using your cards. At least there's a chance to track down the user in that case. The fukked up thing is when your number gets on the dark web. They do a test purchase for a low amount then start firing off purchases really fast until your balance is exceeded. This happened a couple times to me, but a decent bank will shut down your card if a bunch of fast transactions come in like that. My bank must have known they got hacked each time because they started implementing all kinds of new policies after that.

Oh yeah, I don't use my debit card for online purchases because they don't have as good protection policies. And, look for anything suspicious or cheap on the card feeders on ATM machines. People will attach these bullshyt scanners that read your information as you use your card.

The banks have gotten better at catching large purchases. I remember a little over a year ago I was tv shopping online at Best Buy, found one for $2K, went to complete my checkout and as soon as I hit the button on the website, my phone went off immediately with a fraud alert text from the bank. Called them to approve the purchase.
