Also, never, ever click on a link in an e-mail like that, especially one that says "click here to log in." Those are used to steal your login credentials, which, if spoofing for a financial institution, could have disastrous consequences.

I don't click on links on forums like this, either. You just never know. It's better to provide google search information rather than a direct link. Also, be sure to have a anti-virus program like Norton or McAfee. They're so much more than anti-virus now. Also, if you even think your credit card has been compromised, immediately report it as lost or stolen.

That only works if you're using Microsoft products.

Got my "Best Buy" call yesterday afternoon. Hear 5 seconds of the message, hung up and blocked the number. I know, they will just use another one, but I will have silence from them for a little while.
