like a lot of you...it seems that some one got a hold of my Visa Debit card number... so far in the past three days about 15 different orders have been placed thru various online companies - from what I read here it appears my card number has made its way into the hands of the scammers. This particular card hadn't been used in months... and I still had it in my wallet when my Credit Union called me to verify purchases made with the card.

interestingly enough - the combination of data they used ie, ship to name, ship to address, and card number can only be linked to one transaction - I have been pondering this for days... the transaction occurred two years ago when a plane ticket was purchased thru Delta Air Lines on line.

wasn't there something in the news a few months ago about Delta's data having been compromised? Anyone have a similar experience?

so far the companies that have charged my account are:
ENT Entertainment
Phentremine Direct
Gamefly
Pridetech
123Inkjets
Grant Academy
AIC Hydroderm
Bidfuel
Blockbuster
Vistaprint
attempts were made at Netflix, Ebay, MyFax and Columbia House, but I was able to cancel the orders prior to shipment (I think)
