We had used our card at Target during the at risk shopping season. Our bank had a note on line saying that they were aware of the various risks and were monitoring charges and we should/could as well. Nothing was amiss. Until last week.

While I was in the shower mid-morning after a mountainbike ride I missed a text. 20 min later I got a robo-call from my bank asking about a transaction. I was asked about a transaction and then sent to a service rep when it didn't ring true. SO...we get to spend a week without cards and set up all the automatic charges with Pelican etc. The charge - $170 at a Brazilian shoe store. I have had much worse. Although this theft and security weakness is a headache, I am glad that my bank (USAA) has my back.
