Default Re: someone had a great christmas at my expense

Just saw a new charge come in. Was made before christmas, but just hit the account. Called Wells. They confirmed I will not be responsible for the charges and will be refunded. Hell even if I eat some little ones I won't care, but I damn sure don't want to pay 600 to niketown, and some other places like that. They finally called me after they tried to spend 600 @ roxy. Wife and I never spend more then 200 at a time, wish they would have caught it sooner. Like when they bought gas at chevron 3 times in one day. They are saying should be resolved in less then 10 days.

So irritated right now. Lesson learned will be changing how we do things. Apparently they did whats called skinning the card. Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuccccccccccc&

You are not responsible for any of it. Just point out the ones you are disputing.
What is skinning?

I think it's call skimming. I had this happen when I swiped my Amex at a gas station once. They install a device over the merchants cc swipe machine. And it collects your info
