**WARNIING** Compromised Credit Card

Just a quick heads up

Just came off the phone from my bank after spotting a fraudulent transaction on my credit card.

They do know how my card has been compromised and who the problem on-line retailer may be, but aren’t allowed to tell me due to legal issues.

After some gentle persuasion I was told who to avoid after reading out my last transactions…..

All I’m saying is keep an eye on your statements after buying from one of the UK biggest biggest on-line sporting stores…. though it isn’t the one over the water, they have apparently a great record after the problems from a year or so ago.

is that a DIRECT warning ? 😆

is there any wiggle room for interpretation?

Did they try to wiggle out of it 😉

Damn beaten too it

Why so coy? Millet over for a minute, then be a SPORT and tell us!

Since the OP hasn’t said who it is, it’s probably not a great idea to make accusations.

However, since the problems a few years ago, I’ve only ever used PayPal with online bike stores.

Due to pesky little things like libel laws, it’s probably not a great idea to make accusations.

What makes PayPal any better?

I’m 50:50 with card fraud and PayPal hacking & account emptying (one each)

tell you what too – the card fraud was a shed load easier (no hassle) to sort out than the paypal one (lots of long long calls and emails)…..

Credit card is fine for reassurance. Probably better than PayPal. Never had many issues getting fraudulent transactions refunded.Last time in 24hrs with a new card in 48.

You can’t libel a company.

Surely he’s allowed to say who he thinks it isn’t? I’m sure working it out won’t be like doing a decathlon.

Calm down the accusations here, its attitudes and accusations like this that cause a chain reaction.

Yes you can.

I don’t see how the OP has much wiggle room, personally.

is it wiggle? I just bought something from wiggle 😥

I ordered some rugby shorts , put card details in , bank phoned few days later to say card had been compromised 👿

Well I was a target on Sunday luckily my credit card company noticed something strange when there was a small paypal withdrawl to test then a large PC purchase. I haven’t purchased anything from said sports company in a long while so doubt it is associated with them.

You bought more than you bargained for….

(not really, I was just joining in the online retailer puns)

PayPal can be a right hassle to get your money back, at least with you bank you can get a refund immediately

You’ve gone this far now, just tell us, don’t try and ribble out of it.

I had the same today! £1140 transaction, no idea where it might have come from.

Read what the OP said.

Not even if you say it 3 times in a row?

Man, just ordered charge spoon, charge grips and a free bag for £10 from wiggle. Was it too good to be true? Paid via PayPal.

I need it spelling out

Well I’d google, get links, extrapolate.

yer yer, got it now, i havent used wiggle so mine must be from else where

Best of luck to anyone who tries to empty my account, the wife will beat them to it for sure

The main two companies I buy from are CRC & Wiggle

Perhaps also check your own security is up to date too.

Bought stuff of wiggle last week. Odd that I had to re-enter my cc details despite being regular customer. Was that related or pure coincidence? Nothing odd on my cc statement though. Hope it stays that way and hope it isn’t/wasn’t wiggle.

On one wouldn’t let me pay by pay pal other day, had to put in card details! That seemed odd as paid PP plenty of times before.
