my Debit card number just got hacked:(

[confused1234]

went and looked at what my balance was today and found out someone made a purchase to a site ive never heard of before, www.trymedia.com, and to top it off on my transactions page it said "international service fee". sigh

Um, it says Debit card in the title.

You are probably not liable for the charge. Call the bank, report the charge and get a new number.

Can't you tell your bank of the unauthorized transaction and get the money back?

quick, give us the number so we can get some charges in before the bank shuts it down!

all you have to do is go to your finical institution and get a charge back in place with visa and you will get the $ back. then you will need to block that card and get a new one . happened to me a couple months ago i got all the cash back the next day from my credit union.

Get yourself a good credit card instead.

My bank makes you fill out a lot of papers, and then they say "now we'll just wait and see what corporate has to say"...it's like, thanks for your time, now good bye...

Glad to see you have a good bank

Then get a good credit card when you turn 18

I never use my debit card except for at POS and ATM's.

My PIN got stolen and my debit card copied a little while ago. Someone took almost $1000 from me. I just called up the bank, went in and signed a form saying it wasn't me and I got my money back the next day.
