Hmmm. Thanks for the input. That makes me think that it must be unsigned activity that is triggering the fraud alerts. I don't remember for sure, but I'll bet that the fuel charges that were questioned were from unattended readers. And they only swipe my card at DFW, I don't ever sign anything, that factor coupled with a Texas parking lot and an Oklahoma home address apparently triggers a fraud alert -- at least when my husband is using his card elsewhere at about the same time.
