First off I want to say that I LOVE Josh's Frogs and use them for my feeders and other needs for my Cham! They have the best customer service and quality feeders!!
However, I received a letter in the mail from them stating that their systems were hacked and credit card information stolen. I didn't see the letter for several days. My Bad. I thought it was an ad.
I received a call today from my banks fraud department. I called them back and spoke to a live person. I had several pending charges from TODAY that came from several places I don't use such as
They are doing all they can to control and prevent this from happening again, but I got stung for the tune of about $80. Nothing I can't live without, but the fact someone posed as me is infuriating.
The only charge from today that was legit was a charge from the local Kroger's for about $40 for groceries.
BTW, One of the transactions had a 800 number. I called it. My card was used to purchase $20 worth of porn (yes, porn..). The party who collected the money refunded the money AND gave me the name and email of the person who bought it. They also stated they will cooperate with the police and provide the IP address. I hope the name and email is legit. I'm considering this avenue if possible to but a hurt back on these cheats.
I can't be sure it was from the Josh's Frog hack, but its very coincidental that it occurred within a few days. What a pain in the a$$ now to change EVERY thing I automate and all my bill pays, google wallet, eBay , PayPal etc....
Just be careful out there.
