    Fucking scammers!
    I haven't heard of a breach of any of these sites yet - more likely your data was stolen some time in the past year and was sold on the dark web sometime during that period and just used now. They might take some card numbers from a purchased list and do card testing (small dollar transactions in a card-not-present environment) before running the whole list on purchasing fenceable products.

    Was your card fraudulently used on websites that don't ask for the CVV (3-digit code) in their shopping cart or did they get that too? Or were you just notified by the bank that your account was compromised (which means they found your name/card number from a compromised site/store or a dark web sell list)?

    Possible the data was stolen some time in the past, I don't know if they got the CVV too. They did exactly as you said in regards to testing the card out first with small transactions. First purchase was for 1 cent, second $11.00 and then $2500, that's when my CC company froze the card and called me regarding the transactions. New card will be sent out hopefully soon.

    Donation on charity websites - they're light on fraud prevention tools. In the old days it used to be Bell payphones.

    okay...my next question, what kinda asshole only donates 1 cent? That should still be a flag IMO LOL, he's looking for the big tax break eh?


    I hear ya though... I just think maybe ridiculously small amounts should be flagged as much as insane large amounts... dunno
