- Go to Credit Card Fraud
The Banks are wiser now anything a bit different and things are set in motion. A bit different to the way it used to be.

Good Evening
FSI, this has happened to me too. Thankfully your credit card company stopped the transaction.

I am so grateful the company you deal with were aware. This fraudster could have emptied your card. I only use cash or direct debit and have still had to be alerted of false use. I was using Pat Pal on the "net and cancelled it because it appeared to be used by someone to purchase stuff. I don't buy over the internet at all now.

Good afternoon
Whew! Thank goodness these credit card companies are becoming more proactive regarding scams. It happened to us a few months ago. The scammer starts with a small amount and then moves on to something bigger. My charges were also declined and the bank sent me a text asking if I was attempting to make the charges. Mine was for men's suits at Jos A. Bank. 
I'm glad it all worked out for you.
