My credit card has some evidence of fraudulent purchases. Things like "Wuy weight loss tea" and "creditmedia." Luckily they were small purchases but I am glad the credit card company caught it early.
However, I somehow missed my last months payment. I am not one to skip out on bills and I really think I remember scheduling this payment online! I remember it was a few days before and I thought, "Oh, good thing I payed this. I almost missed it." I guess that is the problem with online bill pay. I have no evidence. I guess I really should print out the confirmation.
I also got a phone call from someone asking me to make a payment over the phone since I missed this last payment. I couldn't understand her very well but felt uncomfortable with the idea of giving away financial info over the phone to someone who called me so made the payment once I got home and could call in myself. The whole situation puts a knot in my stomach for some reason. Just seems fishy.
And I really really think I made my payment already...

Sounds pretty strange... Does your bank statement say you paid it?
I would call and tell them your concerns that the card is being used by someone other than you. They will cancel it and send you a new one and there will be no question that you are no longer liable for the charges. It is a brief inconvenience but my long experience on the earth makes me say, "It is well worth it!"
I cancelled the card. However, today I got a package from one of the fraudulent charges. A wu-yi weight loss tea system. I am glad I am getting the product I supposedly paid for but weird? It is a scam where you have to pay $60 a month after they send it. Wonder if the fraudulent person owns the company. It is in Des Moines. Weird! It will all get worked out.
