Call American Express customer service and some woman or guy from India will answer.

Round about May to July when this breach happened, got an email from american express (or so they said) to tell me the good news about points being awarded to the card for use with Uber and with Lyft and isn’t that great etc., and did so by charging the card $1 each for Uber and Lyft to “start your account”.
Contacted Miss or Mrs. Dr. Bombay in Mumbai at the Amex call center and demanded they remove the charges and any affiliation with either outfit. Response was to say that Amex was not doing this.... so this card must have been “sold” to whomever was jacking around with Amex, Uber and Lyft with information. Was hopping mad, and shut down the card right away, with new number card sent 24 hours.

Pretty sure the breach enabled someone to sell the info to someone pushing this crapola, and doing it through google (no surprise).

Any one else have this happen? Allowed as how if travelling and need a “ride” usually have a driver provided or my own self, and will never want my info shared with these two orgs.
