Scary...

I do all of my banking online, so I was going online the other day and my credit card account was blocked. It said there was some kind of fraud and I had to go to this website and see what was going on. So turns out someone stole my credit card number. Not the card itself, just the number. The card is still in my wallet. The truly scary thing, I hadn't used this card in probably 6 months. So how did someone get the number? And they used it at McDonald's, so they had to have made a card with the number, because, as far as I know, you can't buy stuff at McDonalds online. It's so scary what people can do these days. Luckily the bank was on top of it and as soon as they saw that charge they put a hold on the account and I'm getting the money refunded to me, but seriously you just never know. Some advice I was told, when shopping with your ATM card, choose the credit option, it still comes out of your checking account, but you sign instead of entering your PIN number. Just one more way to protect your PIN.
