Don’t feel bad I had my credit card used in Arizona just this past week & we live in Texas. Never been to Arizona. Our bank took care of it, with no problems. I’m guessing some people make so many charges on their credit card that they can’t follow them all, so the crook gets away with a purchase, & the credit card owner just pays it because they don’t even notice it. The credit card that I use, I only use it for gas, restaurants & groceries. I’m getting to the point where I might start using cash. It’s going to happen a lot of times until maybe the banks will make it totally theft proof, if that’s possible!
