Someone just charged my CC $321

I'm in California and someone just tried to use my credit card in a Target in Brooklyn. I didn't have that much money left on my card so it declined and CitiBank called me to verify the fraudulent activity and then cancel the card. People seem to be saying that without the security code, you have nothing to worry about. I work at a retail store and we let people type their card number in if it wont scan and you don't need a security code for that.

You should really cancel your cards if you haven't already. At least the credit card companies are keeping a close eye on this kind of thing and I didn't end up losing any money. Mind you, I have no proof this was PSN related, but I don't use this card for any online purchases and I've never had my card numbers stolen before this PSN fiasco.

I got some spam today in my hotmail account. Darn you PSN for leaking out my email address..... I did report my card stolen online pretty much as soon as the PSN hack was reported. Better to be safe than sorry. I should be getting a new card with new number pretty soon in the mail.

are you seriously asking him to show proof that someone used his credit card? he doesn't have to prove that to you because your not related to him and you don't know him so this kind of thing is none of your business

got craigslist spam....the same message

So you sent the hackers your card did you?:roll:

How can they type in your number or even initiate a scan if they don't have a card to start with?

Smells like BS to me.

Something this serious, which has been proven to be faked by so many people, should be proven some way. I don't think any CC data has been stolen.

Think about it for a second. It seems a lot of forum-dwellers seem to be experiencing these problems of CC fraud. If many of these cases are to be believed, imagine how many people are affected that haven't complained about it. Then do the math and you'll notice that this problem would be pretty big news if it was real. I'm pretty sure the government would be talking about it if it was the result of the breach, as millions of PSN users in the US would be affected by it.

I haven't got any emails or anything. I think I'm safe :)

I wouldn't necessarily blame PSN for this. Google "Citibank Hacked" And see how many times your information has been stollen from them. Most people don't realize it, but bank of america, citibank, and a ton of other CC and Bank companies were hacked directly in the last year or so. Some in the last few months.

How many other places online did you use that card?

Thank god you canceled the credit card. but did they take that money.

The fact that we haven't seen TC since then I call BS. No one else had info stoled like that so without proof i don't believe

yep i had the same thing on friday i am from the uk and someone inthe us tryed to spend $350 on my card. was on to my bank for 45 mins but got in sorted out in the end.

cancel all ya cards right away.

for some odd reason people on this message board seem to think ya make it up but let them keep burying there heads in the sand.

and has for this message.

This means that every act of a credit card being used by someone who just happens to own a PS3 is because PSN was hacked, Sony already said everything was encrypted concerning our credit card data, before this hack people were still having their money taken even though they owned a PS3 it's just the way of life. With the tiny numbers of people who have made these threads it's nothing more than coincidence.

check out the latest info upto 10 million of the 75 million peoples accouts have had there card ifo stolen.

my advice dont buy from CC online there is prepaid card or CC with limit amount this is safe and if it stolen u can change it easly this is what i am doing, i gave my CC a gift for hackers hehehehhe, it had maybe 2 bux or sumthing ... cheeers

I'm surprised a major store woud allow that.

I work in retail too, and we won't even let customers swipe their credit cards if they have the chip on them. We certainly never let any one punch in the numbers.

Sorry to hear that. If you haven't already, I would suggest changing your passwords to any of your accounts that shared the same log in details as you PSN account. Don't want them to gain further access.

Also, if haven't already, read this thread. It's got lots of info on how to deal with credit card theft and such.
