I myself have had both credit and debit card info stolen several times over the past few years. It might be happening to me twice a year now.
One card (debit) I remember distinctly because I only had it for a few months, had only used it a few times, and only in two physical locations. I had recently been to a gas pump that had seen better days, so I chalked it up to that. I went and informed the owner, and after he understood that I wasn't trying to accuse him of anything he became fairly interested.
Recently I had fraud charges on a credit card that I stopped using 6 months prior.
I know it's happened to me at least four times now. Only once did the credit card company alert me - the rest I found on my own.
Does anyone else find this happening to them a lot or is it just me?
