Second time it was approx 8.00am am on a Sunday morning. Phone rings it's her credit card provider asking if she's just spent £1 on petrol way darn sarf. Obviously not as we still in bed. She was informed that's how they test a cloned card. The CC company had put an automatic block on it as it was a new card and she had not yet used it. Suffice to say she cancelled her cards down and moved banks, Halifax by the way who she left.

Touch wood that was many years ago but it's still out there.
I had my cc hacked several years ago in america. Took the kids to Disney land. I used the card once in the Disney store, returned home to a £1500 bill for electrical goods.
