Default Credit Card number stolen

My credit card information was stolen from the Circle K gas station pump on March 30. This is the Circle K at 466a on the Lowes/Publix side of the road.

I used the "tap" feature - where you hold the card next to the black box with the tiny green lights that light up when your card communicates with the pump. Previously I thought this method was safer than inserting the card into a slot.

Thank goodness I get an alert every time the credit card is used. April 1 at 6:48am the card was used to charge $170 at Country Inn and Suites. This is clearly a fraudulent charge. I called the card issuer and canceled the card.

So be careful out there the crookes seem to be smarter every day.
