They told me someone had purchased an Apple computer with my points. They were actually able to cancel the computer being sent out because I had called Sunday and it was ordered Saturday. They put my points back in my account immediately. I will admit I check all of my accounts everyday, Hilton, Marriott, IHG, United, etc. in case my account is hacked.
Nice save ^
I hate when people actually get stuff with stolen info or points.

My IHG CC info was stolen last week, they flagged the purchases attempted in TX at Mexican themed supermarkets. I store my IHG CC info in my account, it's the only one I have ever had compromised. Hmmmm....
