Winter Posted September 27, 2006 Share Posted September 27, 2006 So how does someone use a fake id card to withdraw money from account? Sure you didn't leave it in the canadian brothel? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
underworld Posted September 27, 2006 Author Share Posted September 27, 2006 card's been on me the whole time. at least if i left it in the brothel i might've gotten something for my money. no idea how they make/use the fake card. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slothrop Posted September 27, 2006 Share Posted September 27, 2006 Could be anything. They could have bought your information from some Russian organized crime syndicate (seriously!) and then made their own card. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fenderfour Posted September 27, 2006 Share Posted September 27, 2006 They could have skimmed it. THere are protable readers that will pull the info from a card and enable them to make a fake.

TREETOAD Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 The cops are always busting asian gangs in Vancouver with thousands of blank visa and Amex cards. They make their own card with your number on it. Blame outsourcing!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jens Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 Sorry to hear the news. I'll bet we've got more (higher %) ATM and credit card fraud down here in the states though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
