imschur Posted December 8, 2009 Report Share Posted December 8, 2009 Some dating website true.com charged my debit card about 6 times and cleaned out my account. After a bit of googling I see this is a pretty regular occurrence with this organization. I wonder how they get the credit card info in the first place. Im pissed off.

asmurff Posted December 8, 2009 Report Share Posted December 8, 2009 This happened to my son a few years back. All to often they get your number through a secondary source.We never use a debit card on line. I use a credit card then make a on-line payment to the credit card company right away. At least with the credit card their are limits to what you'd lose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FS2KSTD Posted December 9, 2009 Report Share Posted December 9, 2009 I just recently had some outfit selling dietary pills bill my debit card ... from the Bahamas no less??? I no longer use my debit card for any online transactions; CC only is the rule! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imschur Posted December 9, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 9, 2009 You know whats funny about debit cards, banks dont offer the same security options as credit cards. I would love disposable and assignable numbers. I would use credit cards but they are uh um uh maxed out ;D Bama will be gone before the FS2000 is paid off :grin: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got in big trouble about 10 years back, living a champagne life on a beer budget; finally paid them off and have never carried a balance since. I just hate to give banks money they didn't earn!Hopefully, you get the FS paid off quickly or it'll end up being a $3000 rifle! That just hurts to even say! ::) And I can only hope the azzhat in the White House only serves one term ... don't think the country can take a second term!

Microgunner Posted December 10, 2009 Report Share Posted December 10, 2009 I have a debit card I use only for on line purchased/payments. I only load just enough for my needs at that moment. Sure, it slows me down for a day, but that helps prevent regretted spontaneous purchases. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Longitude Zero Posted December 10, 2009 Report Share Posted December 10, 2009 That stinks. I have one CC that is exclusive to online use and nothing else. I have another CC that is non-internet only so if there is trouble I know where to start looking. Also check every months bill closely.
