I propose that we coin a new term, anytime your CC is compromised, "you've been Shnooped".

My VISA card was Shnooped. Credit card company called today with unuauthorized charge overseas. I've never been across the ocean.
They have blocked my accounts, and issued new numbers.
Stupidness. Should have known better.

Another reason for this old Bart to stay home.
Thanks for the kind offer, Don F, but you would not want a cretin like me pestering you.

I can't see it being the vendor as they would not be selective in the fraud process.
If fraud is the intent, they would have nailed all of us.

No hard feelings here nor apology necessary but not sure what you are referring to when you say "the way it reads, it does sound like that" based on what you quoted.

I think you have me confused with another Blueface.
Above is my quote, followed by yours in response to mine.

Well I was Schnooped .... they charged quite a lot from my AMEX card and I didnt get a call from AMEX about it so people should check their statements.

Charges on mine were from VIA World Bangaladore and were multiple charges. Like most fraudsters they did a test transaction on the 19th and then went for the full boat load on the 21st.

Called the CC and they are taking the charges off and sending me a new one.

My new VISA cards arrived via UPS overnight envelope today.
And a few details of the scams. A lowlife named William charged $516 to my card at a garden shop in New York. The only place in NY that had my CC numbers was Shnoop.
Then some idiot tried to buy airplane tickets in Saudi Arabia. And photography equipment online. Those transactions did not get processed.
VISA has been terrific through this hassle. Did not cost me a penny. Good service -- and this old Bart learned a lesson.
