There are a bunch of fraudulent charges on my credit card. They called me because of some suspicious activities just to verify that I didn’t make the charges, and now I’m waiting for a call back to go over everything in more detail. How do they determine that a charge is suspicious? Is it because there are a bunch of them at once? Maybe I just went on a shopping spree. Is it because the places aren’t in my area? You can order things online obviously, or travel. At this point, I know of some charges from PayPal, Perry Ellis, and Google. It’s not like they’re fake names, so I wouldn’t think any of them would appear to be suspicious right away. Yet they did call me right away because the charges were just made yesterday and today. I guess they’ll just stop payment on the charges and give me a new account number. It’s good to know they catch things like this right away, and I don’t have to notice it later and then fight to prove that whatever purchase wasn’t mine. I know people who have had to do that and it sucks.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
