RE: Yahoo & Credit Card Fraud !

I wanted to let others on the site aware of what happed to me yesterday. Just to let you know i'm very careful as to whom i give out my personal info. Anyway i made a total of 4 seperate purchase's. I received a call from the credit card fraud dept that someone had used my card from yahoo to make way over 20 buys using my credit card information each purchase was $19.95 and some were more. all the charges were taken off and a new card was issued so lucky for me i'm not responsable. i decided to post what happen so others on this site can keep this in mind when using your information to make an online purchase.

In no way has any of the Sponsors or there web site responsable for what has taken place.

Thanks Joe...I alway get freaked out while using a CC on the net...I use PayPal and that seems to be the safest that I have seen...Glad that you got that taken care of and was not help up for the charges.

I hate giving out my credit card number. Thankfully, some cards allow you to create a virtual credit card number to use on the internet. Bascially, you log onto your Credit Card account, and it will generate a one time use virutal credit card number. Citibank is one.
