That is never happened to me.*
I have a suspicion but no proof. Therefore I'll no name anyone.*
Is that also happened to anyone of you, this month?
And what do you think, how are my odds to find out who the impostor is?*
I know that will not change anything but at the moment, I'm quite unsure whether I shall ever again trust an Internet merchant.*
This is since 4 years of credit card payments my first negative experience with American Internet shops.*
I had never thought that that could happen to me.*
Damn, it makes me wanna puke. *

Honestly, even filing a police report is useless. You are better off going through your credit card company fraud protection for any real action. They launch their own private investigations.
A couple years back my company sent several of us to Puerto Rico to stay at the Rio Mar resort to receive this award thing. We were all given stipends, but we had to give our credit card numbers to the hotel front desk for financial holds for the rooms, and we were later reimbursed.
Basically, each and every one of us there had all sorts of charges from places all over the states by the time we came back because the staff at the Rio Mar were had some thing going on where they were stealing and using the numbers. As far as I know, most of us (myself included) took action by going through our credit provider who changed the numbers, denied the payouts, etc.
