I live in Houston and don't keep very much in my checking account. Yesterday I found these two charges on my Chase bank account: Pending Misc. Debit POS DEBIT TOYS'R'US 707 UTRECHT NL $1,368.38 (that's in the Netherlands) Pending Misc. Debit POS DEBIT KEAN UNIVERSITY WEB UNION NJ $5.81 The $5.81 charge was probably a test to see if the card or number worked. I wish that I could wait for several days to get this cleared up, but I will be seriously overdrawn Monday morning. I have contacted my bank and Toy's R Us (who were NO help whatsoever) I have been told that they have cloned my card, with real plastic and maybe even my pin, although I don't know how they would have gotten that.

I am waiting for them to send me the forms to dispute the charges. What did you do to get your return so quickly?

So his claim for fraud has been denied ... what a mess. The scam in his case is that bad checks were deposited at an ATM into his account (in the realm of $2000) then withdrawls (from $500 to $1500) were made at some Walmart stores. He was taken for over $8000. A similar thing happened to my son however WAMU determined the ‘fraud’ was authorized (they believe he gave his PIN away — which he didn’t).

It sucks this kind of thing happens but it is usually made worse when you either don't get your money back or it takes months. Nice to hear you got a refund so quickly.
