Your card has been compromised.....

ROTFL... this
blog makes me flipped a couple of times. It is a good call for these people trying to raise awareness on internet chat scam, more towards protecting innocent girls from getting cheated. Spread the words, raise the awareness, ask these trash out and beat the daylight out of them. Remember to save the chat and track the IP with the ISP as evidence. These scums of the society should be punished. What a disgrace to guys.

"Your credit card has been compromised.." came the first few words after introducing herself as a bank staff. Yes you got my details correct and thank you for telling me that my credit card is one of the lucky ones that happen to be suspected victim of credit card fraud. Still the question is, your bank is one of the biggest in Singapore and you boasted about how safe you are why such incident still happen when the country is encouraging online purchases?

I agree that for every security system installed there is a bugger out there waiting to break it. Just like an anti-virus program some programming dingbat will die breaking their nuts to crack the code.

I question in disbelieve whether has anyone charge anything to my account. Well they manage to tell me when is my last transaction so these guys must be authentic. I am a little disappointed as i was asked to talk to the customer service officer should i find any transaction not done by me is charged to the card. I querried again would the customer service officer be able to tell if i am the one signing the purchase? She pause for a while and ask me to clearify with the CS officer should such occation occur. Damn... so do you think CS department will pay me back what i have lost?

This incident did draw me back a little on online transaction. Perhaps it is still wise to do it the traditional way after all.
