Have you checked your credit report lately?

The problem is VISA. My bank debit/ATM card is through Visa and they (the bank) sent me a nice letter saying there was a security breach at Visa and info was compromised. I got a new card and PIN, but this is the 2nd time in about 4 years this has happened. Had a friend tell me she got the same notification from her bank (different one than mine, but still had Visa debit card).

My bank just replaced my Visa debit card also.

My bank just replaced my Visa debit card also.

Same here. Neither my Visa Debit or my Visa CC were used in error though. I check it often.

I spend the money to have my credit monitored. It is annoying but worth the $17.00 a month.

Theresa, I'm not absolutely sure but I think that the Visa people contact the hotel. After all, you should get your account debited which means they're out of $30000. I pay a fee for Discover Card to monitor my accounts monthly with all 3 credit agencies. I'm so paranoid it's scary. I can afford the small fee to receive a monthly statement and keep my credit intact. I know you're entitled to a free one with the government, once a year. But the ones I get list every credit card, balance, usage etc. and credit score. I feel safer.
My name isn't very common, but yours isn't either. I think I would have had a heart attack. I hope you're OK
