Happened to me with Visa issued through Bank of America. The issue was traced to a Maryland telemarketer and B of A wouldn't discuss it any further with me. They did delete the fraudulant charges from my account and issued a new card.
This crap with cc's just adds to the heap of security issues honest hard working Americans have to face and deal with and the costs are adding up. It started five years ago when I had a security system installed in my home and a monthly payment for monitoring. Had to purchase a cell phone in case the system was activated and I would be notified and another monthly payment. Then with this cc thing I started monthly credit monitoring...another monthly payment.
Except for a few businesses like Pelican and the airlines I don't make any purchases online and will not bank online until the systems resolve the security issues 100%. I'll monitor my banking accounts, mortgage and brokerage stuff and avoid online transactions that can otherwise be done in person over the telephone.
