Been having fun with my new-to-me Galaxy S7 phone and have made some minor $$ app purchases through the Play Store.
Got an email from my bank todya saying they were blocking my credit card due to 'unusual activity' and gave me a phone number to call.
Called the number, which I didn't recognise, and didn't feel right about the person I was speaking with so she advised me to ring the number on the back of the card. Did this and was told they believed my card details were compromised and on a 'list' and had cancelled my card even though I could verify all the small purchase amounts.
Have just been advising all my payees of a new expiry date and now have to go through this again with a new number (which I'll have to memorise).
Aaargh! Anyone had this experience and I suppose I should be grateful to my bank that no fraud had been committed.
