Credit card cloning
Just got a call from VISA that our card had been cloned, used in places as diverse as Minnesota and Milan, Italy, and had, therefore, been canceled.
The usual scam is that a waiter in a restaurant, which is about the only place where you don't keep control of your card, runs it through a small device that records the data on the magnetic strip. We haven't used that credit card recently in any restaurants outside The Villages area.
Just curious as to whether anybody else has had a similar problem.
