So Visa called my house today about suspicious activity on my card. My dad called me at work and then I called Visa services...the lady says to me, "Ok, well, the last charge we have is 635 dollars to a cellular instalment company (LOUD GASP and Curse word from me)...ok, guess that's not you...and then we have 259 dollars at a liquor store in miami (i'm not old enough to buy alcohol)." So once I calmed down, she told me that they had denied a 550 dollar purchase at some sort of boutique in Vegas
Apparently, someone that I have had physical contact with with my credit card, swiped it through some sort of machine that COPIES your magnetic strip info..and made copies of my card, one that's working in Vegas and one that's working in Miami. I am SO incredibly mad right now, you have NO IDEA. I only have a 1000 limit..they couldn't buy much..but it's the fact that someone stole my credit card that really really irks me. And she said there's really no way to catch them or prevent it from happening. She said that it's usually an employee at a store or restaurant that doesn't do background checks..they work for a few weeks and then just quit because they have your card info. So what I'm planning on doing is going back to every place I've charged in person and asking them about employees that fit this profile. They fu**ed with the WRONG chick this time...I'm going to find whoever did this and sue them, and sue them good for whatever I can nail them for.
