I had something similar happed, twice ion the last 3 years. As it turns out someone just happened to mistype a digit or 2 on their account number, and ended up with mine. A quick call to the credit card company straightened things out quickly.

I took advantage of my credit card emailing me for all charges above $25, and all phone or internet charges. I have actually had notifications and been on the phone with the credit card company in 15 minutes of the charge occurring. I was in my email system at the time.

And if this was not a simple error, report it as was previously mentioned, and get a new card.
