Interesting. I recently had my first-ever unauthorized charges show up on American Express. They only attempted two buys before I caught them. One went through, one failed. They were buying wire crimping tools and cordless computer keyboards and having them shipped to Indonesia. Pretty weird.

I had some unauthorized charges show up on a Mastercard about a year ago--a small charge (around $11) to an internet cafe in Moscow. Like in Russia (not Idaho). When I called the company, they said to call the place to have the charges removed. I asked if they happened to have the number for the internet cafe in Moscow, Russia, handy because it wasn't listed on the invoice....I heard a bunch of clicking & clacking & other keyboard sounds & then she said, "Never mind," and they took care of it. It was a big scam that skimmed millions of credit cards.
