Just a heads-up. I received a call this morning from the card service agency
that processes my Visa charges, asking me to review some recent charges to
establish their legitimacy. They had noted a charge that raised a flag, but I
don't know how they detected it.
It turns out that, over the weekend, someone got my card number and made a
fraudulent charge to the account, for the amount of $385.01. I suspect it
resulted from my use of the card with internet merchants, though I also use it
around town.
I have canceled the card and initiated actions to remove the charge from my
account. This is my first encounter with this type of thing, though I knew
that it is not too uncommon.
Keep an eye on those accounts!
