Fraud
 
Just had a company phone me up saying someone trying buying a laptop with one of my visa cards. They only had the first 4 digits (have 3 cards that start the same) and the expiry wrong. They also had my parents address, which i changed 2 weeks ago. (even though i moved out 2 years ago. :woot:

So if i was cloned wouldn't the card details be right? I don't see how they got my details as i keep all statments and other stuff gets burned.

Any ideas?

Ive cancelled my cards and reset the pins. :thumbdown:

My mams card got cloned, she only relised when she got her statement there was two transactions from poland and two charges for using the card, she used her card at cash machines at bridlington and withernsea :thumbdown:

Mone got done in italy at the euros, 700 euro down but i got it back after a while, luckily rbs stopped the card and i had to phone up to get it re-activated. I did pap my pants though when i went to a cash machine one time and was told my card was not elligeble for international use, considering i had a hotel to pay for etc :cry:

Someone once tried to use my credit card to buy a £1500 suite.
Lloyds TSB stopped them from using it as the limit wasn't high enough :thumbsup:.......but after three attepts, Lloyds TSB 'upped' the limit, allowing them to buy it!!:thumbdown:.
Only then, did they decide to call me to say that someone was trying to use my card for an unusual amount in an unusual place!?:confused: Why didn't they call me after the second time they tried? before they decided to up the limit without telling me?!

IDIOTS!!

No longer with Lloyds TSB, they're arse holes.

I'm with HSBC and I go out of my way to use my card in far away locations and unusual amounts (even a couple of times in one day)
HSBC have never questioned any of it

Some asswipe used my details to buy loads of crappy Warhammer stuff in the states.

No idea how they go hold of my details. All I can think of is cloning somewhere. Hopefully not a model shop as I have given my details out on many occasions. You just have to trust people don't you I suppose.

Anyway, the only way I noticed was that the email address used was slightly different to my real one.

Barclaycard refunded the money after a couple of weeks and lots of forms / phonecalls. Still a load of hassle though.
