On Friday after work, I went to the store directely after work and used my ATM card to pay for some things.. It was about $9.00 worth.. Nothing special. My card was declined, I said wait something is wrong.. can you run it again.. Thats not right, I know I have money. The guy ran my card again and it was approved.. He said oo sorry must of been a gliche.
I said ok... No biggie..
Later around 10pm I went to the bank to get cash, and my card wouldnt work, it said to call.. So I did.. the bank told me I have a lot of pending charges which is why Im not able to get money.. I said what???? I only used it once for 9.00.. He then went through all the pending charges. Which was about $500. worth of pending charges.. I said ooo nooooo those are mine... So I had to cancel my card... blah blah blah...
I do get all my money back by tomorrow.. but GEEZ!!! What a mess....
This is not the first time, this has happened to me... A few years back someone got my number and charged 5K for airline tickets using my ATM card number.. That one was a disaster!!
I had to file police reports, and the airline had the tickets red flagged..
I filled complaints with the banking commision and BBB.. Because I didnt even have 5K in the bank.. The transaction shouldnt ever been approved.
WHO or HOW is someone getting my ATM card number and using it...
I have my card...
I "think" its a stranger, but hey you never know....
How in the world are they getting it???????????????
