Mom got a bill today from credit card company to find that someone has exchanged 300+ bucks into Japanese yen. Luckily the company paused the account until we called them today where they promptly closed it. First time ever happened to us, were normally pretty careful and still not sure how they go the info cause she hardly uses it.

And WTF does it matter that it was converted into Japanese yen? :confused:

Your family must be very rich and powerful to be targeted by the JAPANESE!
