I took the family out to Olive Garden Sunday and rather than have the Son pay the tab, I gave my credit card to the male server when he served drinks and told him to give me the bill. I didn't get it back until we finished the meal and he brought me the receipt to sign.
Today I checked my TFCU account and the CC account and found that I had two $1.00 charges for today. So I contacted TFCU and they said that the charges were for a gas station in Harlingen Texas. I told them to cancel the card and I'll go in to a branch and get a new card.
They said if charged do appear within he next few days they'll fill out a fraud report.
This one instance is the only time the credit card has been out of my sight and I made a grave mistake in my opinion and it won't happen again, next time I'll go to a TFCU ATM and get cash. To heck with building up points!
Just a word to the wise, I'm sure it happened to some of you guys also but some haven't been hit yet.
