Credit card fraud, YAY.

Mint.com sent me a notice of a large transaction, otherwise I wouldn’t have discovered it until I checked my monthly bill weeks from now.

Apparently someone booked a trip and hotel to San Diego via getaroom.com with my Discover card using our old Michigan address and a cell number one digit off from Tom’s. Starting on our anniversary of all things.

I immediately thought it’s somehow the current tenants at the Michigan rental, but did we somehow leave a credit card behind? That got lost in a crack or a drawer somewhere? I just can’t imagine that. And all mail was forwarded (plus I get online statements only) so they couldn’t get an account number that way. And to have a number really close to Tom’s cell (123-456-2000 vs 123-456-2001) just makes it even stranger.

Ugh.

Discover is taking care of it, but it’s still a pain in the butt.
