Two nights ago, my husband was checking our Capital One account and found numerous fraudulent charges on it. All of them were for ticket places, like someone was buying concert tickets, for $140 or more. I called the 24 hour CS line and, fortunately, they have a 100% fraud insurance thing, so they removed the fraudulent charges and have initiated an investigation. They also FedEx'd me a new card with a new number on it.
The thing is, it's our backup account, so to speak. We only use it for emergencies or special occasions. When I was buying all of my birthday stuff, this is the card I put them on rather than our normal account. And everything I bought was from either Amazon or FastTech. I can't think of anything I bought from any other place. I doubt it was Amazon, as I've had a Prime account with them for like a decade and never had a problem. I didn't have any problem with my previous FastTech purchases either, though. So I'm really hoping it wasn't them as I want to continue purchasing from them.
