Just a thought...you said there was a message from the credit card company and an email. You returned their call. Did you use an 800 number they left on your message or email, or did you go look up the credit card’s 800 number online, or on the back of your card, and call that number.

Reason, there might not have been any fraud, but fraudsters alert you to “false” credit card usage, and then get pertinent info from you when you return a call or take the call for that matter, or respond to the email. Credit card phishing is rampant via email, and these types of calls.

Make sure you actually called the credit card company back, and it was the credit card company you were speaking too. Best way to do that is to look online for their credit card phone line, or on the back of your card, and give them a call to make sure there was suspicious activity, or were scammers trying to get info from you.
