A transaction went through my account for today's date that looked like this:
DBT PURCHASE / CHECK CARD CFM 866-492-7652 MA
The total was for $9.75, a look through all my receipts and a call to Hubby revealed that neither of us had made any purchase that resembled this transaction. I tried calling the number (866)492-7652 and was sent straight to voice mail, which just stated that it was the voicemail system and to leave a message at the beep. No identifying company or individual.
A quick look on google under the phone number revealed this.
A call to the bank revealed the transaction was done on Hubby's debit card, so I immediately had it deactivated, and will be going through the steps to get this transaction reversed after I call my local law enforcement folks to get a case number then jump through a couple hoops at the bank.
All I can say is I am glad I'm online so frequently with my bank account. If I had waited a couple days or longer, I would have thought it was something I had just lost the receipt for (which I've been known to do at least once a year as the receipt takes a ride through my washer and dryer in the pocket of my jeans), and enter it into the register then.
I think I am going to be more attentive and check my account daily from now on!
