Probably didn't have a thing to do with AP. I have had two credit card accounts used bogusly in the past year and NEITHER were used with amazon payments. Both cases noone had the cards but they somehow made a fake card and were able to swipe them. The one card was a marriot visa that I got and put put $1k in charges on (card was only used twice) and had been sitting in a locked area of my house that only I have access to for a few months, so hard telling when the theif/poacher got your card info.
