I learn this from a REAL breach on a Chase card - the card was only used twice before a fraudulent charge showed up - since the first usage was to pay AT&T online, and the second usage was in a restaurant - I have to conclude the card info was stolen by the waiter and subsequently sold to criminals.

This thread has now turned into a security breach thread involving several cards, so it will be relocated. A permanent searchable live link will remain on the American AAdvantage Forum for members' convenience. (The thread title has been changed slightly as well.)

I didn't get a call or anything but did receive in the mail yesterday a new Citigold debit card. Included was a letter talking about how a merchant might have compromised a number of credit cards just like the OP's posting. Interesting since I never use my Citigold debit for any transaction other than as an ATM card (and so far only at Citibank bank locations)
