[QUOTE="Ethan N, post: 3233997, member: 29267"] $1 charges at gas stations are usually authorization charges to make sure the card is valid before allowing the customer to pump gas. OP should expect to see actual charges for gas in the next couple of days. I don’t worry about fraudulent charges. It’s inconvenient to have to be issued a new card number, but it’s no big deal in the end. Doesn’t cost me anything. I’ve had cards replaced due to fraudulent charges probably 8 to 10 times in the last 10 years. That’s part of why I never use a debit card except at ATMs. With credit, unauthorized charges are reversed immediately after I call the bank and I don’t hear anything else about it after that.
