After my credit card numbers were used at a gambling facility in Florida (I live in California) - and Thank God my bank notified me as it was happening - I had a “high alert” put on my accounts.
Idiot was making repeated $750 bets at a sports betting venue - made another one while the bank was canceling my account. Got all my $$ back, had to change everything, which was a real pain b/c I have auto pay on several things.
Have NO idea how/where my credit card numbers, etc., were breached but I am now on high alert and change my passwords every few months.
Hertz sent me an actual authorized email to make me eligible for “skip the counter” last week. It contained a QR code to their site. Hertz had been hacked so my card had to be cancelled and replaced. Of course it was the one card that I use for all of the vendors I use, like Amazon, airlines, storage, Netflix, Xfinty, and a long list of others that get monthly or annual payments. That’s twice in two years. Fortunately, Capital One caught both of them immediately and I paid for nothing. Just the same, I had to spend hours each time updating payment methods on my vendors. I now have saved a complete list of vendors to update the next time.
