Red Flag???

[witchdoktor]

put it an order Wednesday......Thursday credit card company called asking if I authorized a transaction with a computer service company in Europe

others have similar experience?

 

[boss]

first why would you use a credit card???? next, yes its normal for them to call cause its not where you normally purchase items. they do that to see if your card has been stolen.

I've received those same type of calls from CC companies.

 

[witchdoktor]

I didn't know credit card companies did that. I did purchase a few things outside the U.S. in the past and never had that happen before.

anything thats not in your spending habbits send up a red flag and they call. For my birthday my mom gave me the CC to pick up some stuff, came out to like 650 and they called to see if it was stolen. Its not a big deal, but im gonna go out on a limb here and say buying gear on a CC isnt that great of an idea.

Why would you purchase any type of gear with a credit card to begin with? Not a very good move.
