Default Credit Card Fraud

Please check your credit card transactions carefully.

I went online on Saturday to check our Wells Fargo Visa account, and there was a transaction on the 15th December for $1.60 for Decoration Art, LLC in Jacksonville, Fl. Bruce was in hospital then and I haven't used the card this month at all. We usually only use our bank's debit card.
I did some checking on the internet, and this company seems to do this on a regular basis, usually small amounts, always ending in .60
I called Wells Fargo and requested that they cancel the cards and issue new ones. They say they will cancel the charge as fraudulent and send it to their fraud department, and issue us new credit cards.

As they are a registered LLC in Florida I filed an online complaint with the State's Attorney General's office.

Many people probably wouldn't notice a $1.60 charge, or if they did they would probably discount it. If these companies do this to enough people they would make quite a bit of money. Also it is possible that if the small charges go through then they would put a bigger charge through.
