So I said a prayer and sent the email with my CC#.

Today, my credit card was denied when I went to make a purchase. I called my credit card customer service to find out that they had put a hold on my account because of suspicious activity. Sure enough, someone tried to make purchases in Georgia with my number. Fortunately, they were only able to make 2 purchases before shutting down my account.

Lesson learned the hard way.
sorry to hear the bad news and Thanks for posting about it, as Im positive that you werent the Only one to email your CC info.

as a precaution I will monitor my CC accts very closely least somehow anything was ill gained and not stopped as your Bank was on top of yours. Are you certain that they got the info via GPs site? not that Im not gonna assume otherwise
