QS ... i bought son's piano book through ebay, next thing we heard that the credit card company (UK) call my father in law said that they suspended our card because they suspect fraud (5 poundsterling!), and my father in law panickly rang my husband, and my husband rang the company back through his mobile to explain that we did used the card online to buy piano book.
Total cost of the piano book now alot more than 5 pound ! :-(
Nowadays credit card company are very careful ... when they see unusual activities they take no chance.
From what I read at Barclay Bank online page, they said they will never communicate through email - text for the accound or credit card details.
What we should do then?
you see, Novi? Thats want i did yesterday , and they suspended my credit card..`lol...yesterday I used my credit card for some purchase on line. Today in the morning i discovered that my card is not working and it gives the message: Contact the issuer. So I did. And they said: I made a transaction on line, and later they tried to call me twice and even sent a text message, but i never answered.. they suspended my card like suspicious one.. :):)

I did nto try to call them back. Of course thought to send back an SMS. Later thought, if it all the call is so urgent, why dont they call me again.
Never call them back to an unknown number.( i mean the overseas number )
i never respond to a text or a call from a number i dont know. If it is really urgent they/she/he will call you back.
Hey even i got such message and i called back to check what and who is behind this.
I heard some guys talking in URDU seems to be pakis..
I asked them what is this for, they told me I won 200000QR and they will send me money by western union.
so guys be careful for such sms, emails and postal letters if you receive at your end, I know most of all are not stupid but be careful in handling such cases.
