? Are you saying they made a new credit card after they mag read it? Because you HAVE TO HAVE THE CREDIT CARD IN HAND to use it at those places. yes. it's been rampant as of late. I had my check card info stolen and used in sothern cali last month... check card...so the fuckers had direct access to my bank account, which doesn't suck too bad. they blew about 1200 in two days before I noticed it. my bank is rad though and I got all that shit back...after filling out a mountain of paperwork. I hate theives... |

i had my identity stolen 2 years ago when some collector agency working for walmart called me up and told me my check bounced from some washington bank and i owed them 200+ dollars. I laughed at them, since I had proof I was out of the country the day the check was used, but anyways, had to call up the washington bank and deal with that crap

I would assume this is how it happened: Stupid fucking credit card companies send those stupid fucking balance transfer checks that can be used anywhere. They send them 6 at a time.... 6 transactions were made. I keep these checks in a safe place in my apt. I would assume the idiot mailman misdelivered them to one of my white trash/ghetto minority neighbors and they had a party on me. doubtful. I was working with the DPD fraud and ID theft detectives for a week and this is how it likely went down... go to a restaurant, dickweed waiter has a scanner/reader that gets all your info off the card. sells info to some black market tool, they then print new cards with that info, then they sell those cards out. a nationwide sting went down just two or three weeks ago busting one of these rings...they got people in florida, new york, cali, and (maybe?) texas. it was all over CNN.com |

I hate theives... I know it can happen, but Ive only used the card once in the past 4 months at a card shop my friend owns. I go there all the time and he never did that before. Him and his son are the only ones that work there. I had my social security number stolen before...that was "fun"... had to sit in an interrogation room when I went to get my driver's licence renewed. |

I dont think even you know what youre talking about. no, i'm pretty aware of what's going on. |

oh and Ive never used that card at an ATM. That card is only 6 months old. A majority of the balance is a transfer from another CC and then there was 3 other purchases...like I said...over 4 months ago. All these fraudulent charges happened last weekend

identity theft doesn't have to be instantaneous.
somebody tried to access information from an account that my parents had in denver and we haven't lived there since 2002. |

you're friend is a crook! LOL got me then...I use my often so I have no clue where the hell it happened. I guess thats why I just assumed it was those damn checks that can be used anywhere. I dont know how they could be used, though, cuz everywhere and their mother ID's when you use a check |

Since that card is only 6 months old and I have never really used it, your mag strip nonsense is pretty unlikely |

why in the fuck would someone have the technology to read strips on credit cards and then use the CC at places like Chevron, Albertsons, and Party City? Sounds to me like a Mexican got a hold of those checks, Mr. Know-it-all
