Just hit with 2 KARMALOOP transactions on my mum's supplementary AMEX. Transactions done at 6.08am and 6.09am.
She never, ever uses the card online. Only for petrol and groceries. Surprised her card was the one used for fraud. |

QUOTE(iamoracle @ Jul 24 2013, 09:04 AM) I was a victim too. No, didn't hear about the alert but they do send me SMS for every online transaction that is made on the card. That's how I found out about the KARMALOOP transactions. Same transaction. First time I got hit by online transaction fraud despite being careful. Nothing much you can do. It's difficult to protect against digital thefts. Have you signed up for SMS transaction alert?  QUOTE(cybpsych @ Jul 24 2013, 09:10 AM) the fraud transactions always hit in wee morning, local time. Yeah, first thing I did when I woke up and saw the message. Didn't even have time to brush my teeth.so the actual fraudster could be at other countries/continents. YummyFriedOnions quickly call Maybank to report the fraud and get a replacement card. imo, AMEX has very lax in security, unlike Visa/MasterCard. Cancelled and they are sending a replacement card over. |
