Friday afternoon, the Scientist received a phone call from the bank that issued our credit card. It seems someone has used our credit card number to pay a lawyer fee in the US. We don’t have much of an idea as to how our number was obtained and can only assume a security issue at some point when we have used our cards. Possibly the Sony hacking incident earlier this year. So our card numbers have been cancelled and we now await new cards to arrive. We generally don’t have much good to say about the bank that issued these cards. But the fraud division for their credit card department has been very much on the ball about checking up on possible fraud this time and in the past.
