credit card fraud

Postby sandybeach » 30 Aug 2013 21:53

I had read on Facebook about people who had used resort hoppa has had unauthorised items charged to their account. Maybe it is a coincidence but I received my bank statement today and I have 3 payments for the London Underground & £55.60 each and a top ups for a phone to O2 in slough. I live in Hampshire so these charges are definitely not mine. Thank god I am using icr for my transfers this time and not resort hoppa like I did in June. If you need to remove this post due to legal reasons John , I am sorry for posting but felt I should warn anyone who has used resort hoppa to check their bank statements very carefully .

I would check the petrol stations you are using as they seem to be on top in this area for the source of fraud

We had a card cloned after using it in Salou a few years ago, in an official tabac shop of all places. CC company were on the ball and phoned to ask if we were buying National Express tickets at less than £2 each (fraudsters will normally try a few low transactions to see if they go through).
We now have all cards banned from foreign transactions unless we tell them dates beforehand.
