3. Stopped at another DFW area WM. Purchased $999 MO, no ID required.
4. Stopped at third WM, asked for $2k of MO. DL info was entered and transaction was successful for $2k of MO (4 swipes). This was approximately 8:30am, so 24 hours and 10 minutes after first purchase Thursday.

So looks like the 24 hour rolling $8k limit theory might be spot on.
thanks for the detailed DP. so you are not concerned about personal info being typed into walmart system 4 times daily?
