<![CDATA[Credit card details hacked?]]>Hi folks,
Something you may want to look into.
I recently entered my credit card details to take out a subscription. A couple of days later my bank closed the card after a transaction of $1 was attempted on the account.
Was this part of a regular payment process, or has someone able to get my details from your payment service?
Maybe including a Paypal payment method would be an idea.
We love Windy here in Tasmania.
Cheers,
Iain

They are taking it and giving you back in that very moment. You should ask a bank about certain circumstances

What company actually attempted to charge $1? Check with them if they use this system.

Where did you try to purchase, on desktop or App/Google store?

You should check if you did not sign up to some other service.
