Dean Lewis
What could someone do with my credit or debit card details?
I mean all the numbers, names, expiry dates, etc on the card. Surely if someone used them online to buy something, the police could just check who or where it was delivered to and catch the crook? Or am I missing something. Just watched the Real Hustle on TV there and they got someone's details but I don't see how they could actually use them?

Soooo...what you're saying is you wouldn't worry if someone stole your credit cards and maxed out your accounts because you're sure they would get caught?

Do you think this would only become a "minor inconvenience" for you?


Citizen DeCat
Could be used abroad, that would take much longer for you to detect, and by then the damage would have been done.


miss_gemstone
i suppose with some shops you can have items delivered else where...as long as your there when the delivery man comes....maybe thats how..


Mariposa
Yes, the police and/or company would try to track down who was using the infomation, but it's not as easy as it seems. In the meantime, they would be ringing up charges and ruining your credit.


Ms Fabulosity
Sorry to have to tell you the bad news but NO, the police are not as "on the ball" as we'd like to think they are. Credit card and identity frauds are the 2 fastest growing crimes and even when a fraud is found out, it can take ages to put right. As for delivery addresses, not all landlords are meticulous about screening and checking their tenants; people rent places and move on, so catching them is even harder!


tommy
i had my details stolen and 8 grand used on my card......they bought dollars in one AMEX shop and changed it back to pounds in many others.


stav_rock

NIGEL R

Yes you are missing something. Do you really think the police have enough resources to go chasing after credit card frauds?

The details you mention above are useful to theives.

Dont assume that the banks automatically believe you when you tell them " it wasnt me that bought x,y,z"
