Credit Card Fraud

 

A man went to the local gym and placed his belongings in the locker.  After the workout and a shower, he came out, saw the locker open, and thought to himself, "Funny, I thought I locked the locker.  Hmm, "He dressed and just flipped the wallet to make sure all was in order. Everything looked okay - all cards were in place.  A few weeks later his credit card bill came a whooping bill of $14,000!  He called the credit card company and started yelling at them, saying that he did not make the transactions.  Customer care personnel verified that there was no mistake in the system and asked if his card had been stolen. "No," he said, but then took out his wallet, pulled out the credit card, and yep - you guessed it - a switch had been made.  An expired similar credit card from the same bank was in the wallet.  The thief broke into his locker at the gym and switched cards.  The credit card issuer said since he did not report the card missing earlier, he would have to pay the amount owed to them.To ensure this does not happen to you, please make sure you guard your credit cards at all times.
