Default Re: Credit card thieves...

Had my card info stolen a while back and it was actually a fairly painless process to get the fraudulent charges taken off and a new card sent out. The bigger pain was updating all my bills and accounts with the new card info.

Best I can figure how they got the info was when I stopped at a gas station and swiped my card at the pump. It didn't register on the pump so I tried again and nothing. I moved to another pump and it worked fine. It wasn't until I saw the charges that I remembered how thieves use a device that they slide into the card reader to take your number. Next time that happens I'll make sure to let the attendant know.
