This explains it. I got a call from Chase on Wednesday questioning a few charges. Canceled the card and they overnighted me a new one so I was back to normal on Thursday. But now I have to memorize a new number
I wasn't in Philly but I was notifed this afternoon that my card had been hacked. I'm wondering if it might have something to do with the ANA data base because I pay my dues with that card.

Where is that thread about the cashless society? Imagine the chaos!
I was in Phiilly and no card problems here. If this many coin people had card problems then it is unlikely that this is all one big coincidence. A numismatic company or service must have had their database or readers hacked.

Ok, a non-public Yahoo! Group has been made to discuss this. The purpose of which is to narrow down where the leak came from. Those interested in narrowing in down can PM me for details.
Yes, this will require joining Yahoo! but one can always use fake info for the join.
also, one will have to post here or in the other CC / Philly thread to let me know you want to join before sending me the PM
I won't be accepting new people into the group. I hope we have enough people on here with a history that it can be narrowed down using familiar names.

None of the vendors who autobill my cards allow for a backup account if the primary account fails for some reason. We're talking water bills, telephone bills, cell phone, and several other similar bills. It's a great idea though - wish the vendors would implement that.

It's good to use one card for those bills with autobill and not carry it or use it for shopping. Then use another card for shopping that you carry with you. That way as long as those places that autobill don't have a breach that card is less likely to be compromised.
If the card that you shop with ever has a problem you can get a new one without needing to mess with changing the info with the places you autopay.

That was going to be my next suggestion; get a dedicated card.
I recall reading somewhere that Euopean CCs and ATM cards have used RFID for several years for INCREASED security. As someone else mntioned, I suspect a database was compromised, rather than individuals being scanned.
Did not go to Philly, but my card was fraudulently used at Travelocity and Jet Air... out of Texas and New Jersey. Bank of America cancelled the card and said they would send me a new one. They'll pay for the fraudsters usage. Are they nice or what ?

Wouldn't they simply do a chargeback and get their money back, esp. from an established legit business? Can't believe that they would simply just eat the charges without putting up even a hint of a fight. If the outfit is bogus that might be a different story.
On this past Saturday my American Express card was charged $1.00 from FedEx. I don't even use FedEx.
I wonder if a layer of aluminum in the wallet would block a scanner, or at least reduce the range of the scanner?

All my Credit/Debit cards with the RFID chip have been disabled with the help of a philips screw driver. Locate the chip and place the philips on it then give it a good whack with a hammer or your palm. The card is left with a small dimple on the front, but I can live with it. I have no need for this chip so I don't need it. Plenty of youtube videos showing different methods of disabling, even videos showing thieves how to make their own scanners to get your info.
<< <i>Has it actually been confirmed that all of these cards with fraudulent charges contain an RFID chip? >>
No, No, NO!!!
My card did not have an RFID chip. I believe many others did not, either. It seems highly unlikely that so many numismatists spread across the country had their cards scanned last week. More likely would be a security breach at a common merchant where a hoard of CC numbers was harvested from the merchant's database. JMHO, but I think the RFID angle, at least in this case, is a red herring...

I'm surprised this crowd is satisfied with simply having replacement cards and not narrowing down where the leak came from. Others could get hit as they cycle through the list they have, plus they could go back for more..... no web site has notified anyone of a breach.

FYI, I contacted the Philly Chamber of Commerce to let them know about how this since I'm sure it's unusual to have this many people have cards compromised at the same time around the same area - and we don't even know about all the non-coin people that this happened to.
Also, I just got an email from Coin World - looks like they are doing a story about the compromised credit cards.

anyone care to share details on a Yahoo! group I set up? Post here or in the other CC hack thread if you want me to PM you the details.
I had one card used to pay a cable TV co. for over $700, and that same card used to pay over $100 for an electric bill. Surely it wouldn't be hard to find out who paid their bills with my card, and the cc co. said they would recover what they could, but wouldn't ever tell me who it was , or how they did it. The cops said that as long as the cc reimbursed me and I didn't lose anything -which was the case - then they had better things to do. I don't know if debit cards have protection, and this is all reason not to use bank account #s online it seems to me.

There are a ton of WF in Georgia - especially Atlanta - and I use them with no such problems. What you experienced may be due to the proximity from your address on file.

ANA advises members to check credit, debit statements
The American Numismatic Association has received reports that several members had credit or debit card numbers stolen during their stay in Philadelphia for the World’s Fair of MoneySM. In light of this, the ANA advises members to check their credit and debit cards for unusual charges.
The stolen credit card numbers did not come from a compromise of ANA databases, its websites or from credit card charges made during the World’s Fair of Money.
If your card has been compromised, the Philadelphia Police Department recommends first contacting your credit card company to cancel your card and report the fraudulent charges. If your credit card company advises that you need to file a police report, call your local police department.
“When you’re reporting a credit card theft, it is treated as a theft from your home. It’s the same procedure nationally. So you report the crime in your local jurisdiction,” said Sgt. Anthony Rapone of the Philadelphia Police Department.
Credit card companies will investigate the source of the theft.
If your credit card number has been stolen and you were able to pinpoint the source, please contact ANA Library and Communications Director RyAnne Scott at 719-482-9867. Information will be forwarded to the Philadelphia Police Department.
Just got word from my bank that they successfully blocked an out of state attempted charge. This would be the first hack of my cc in about 10 years...so what are the chances of a coincidence.

I received a call from Chase last Friday Aug. 17th that, for the 1st time ever, my credit card had fraudulently been charged with a $1 charge, $30 from bodybuilder.com and hundreds of dollars on some spanish airline(CM?). I collect paper money (not coins) but I have, in the last year, purchased from multiple online coin shops when they were having specials on silver eagles. I was not in Philly but after reading this thread I can't help but feel like all these numbers were compromised through one of the larger (no idea which) online coin shops. sorry about the blank post above, thought i was logging in.

I have not had any of my accounts hacked, and I was not at the Philly ANA, however...
Yesterday I was looking through my cards to see if any have the RFID logo, and I discovered that only one card -- issued by Chase Bank -- is RFID enabled.
Today in the mail I received a new card from Chase Bank -- midway between the previous expiration date and the upcoming expiration date -- and the only apparent difference between the two cards is the three-digit-code by the signature panel and the lack of an RFID logo on the card.
I wonder if the bank has me 'profiled' as a numismatic purchaser and removing the RFIDs as a loss-prevention strategy, or if they're simply removing the logo from cards which still contain an RFID chip.
I did not request a new card, I'm not near the expiration date to receive a new card, and I didn't complain about having RFID on my current card.
"Giving away an MS-65 $20 St. Gaudens to everyone logged in when I make my 10,000th post..."
I wonder how many of the recently stolen credit card numbers will be used for major ebay coin/bullion purchases. The increase in credit card theft is sure to hit ebay purchases. I do not like the fact that paypal requires a seller to allow someone to use a credit card to make a paypal purchase but holds the seller fully responsible for the loss if CC theft was involved. It would be nice if sellers had the option to opt out of accepting paypal CC payments.

Add my name to the ever growing list. I quoted this post because this is almost exactly what happened to my card. I was not in Philly for the ANA show, but yesterday someone charged $10 on my AMEX to American Endowment? Today they attempted to charge $575 to an airline based in Los Angeles but I received a fraud protection alert and cancelled the card within 30 minutes of the transaction. I don't use my AMEX for online coin purchases but I did use it for my ANA & NGC memberships.
I don't think we've heard the end of this story yet. It usually takes a while before a business admits they've been violated. It takes a while to discover and positively determine where and when the intrusion took place. They've got to determine which clients CC numbers were exposed. Management must come up with a mitigation plan (which is likely hampered by rampant CYA). Eventually, they'll send out a communication to all of the affected clients announcing the CC exposure and telling us to check our CC activity while simultaneously describing whatever mitigation they have taken to fix the problem.
I think we'll all be getting a communication from somebody soon. JMHO of course...
and the fact that people are still getting hit is why I pursued this so hard.... imagine if it was a debit card.... we'd have another someone living off $28 until their bank account is fixed.

UPDATE: mid-August 2012 Stolen Credit Card (CC) Info ...
I have not had any of my accounts hacked, and I was not at the Philly ANA, however...
Yesterday I was looking through my cards to see if any have the RFID logo, and I discovered that only one card -- issued by Chase Bank -- is RFID enabled.
Today in the mail I received a new card from Chase Bank -- midway between the previous expiration date and the upcoming expiration date -- and the only apparent difference between the two cards is the three-digit-code by the signature panel and the lack of an RFID logo on the card.
I wonder if the bank has me 'profiled' as a numismatic purchaser and removing the RFIDs as a loss-prevention strategy, or if they're simply removing the logo from cards which still contain an RFID chip.
I did not request a new card, I'm not near the expiration date to receive a new card, and I didn't complain about having RFID on my current card.

I have not had any of my accounts hacked, and I was not at the Philly ANA, however...
Yesterday I was looking through my cards to see if any have the RFID logo, and I discovered that only one card -- issued by Chase Bank -- is RFID enabled.

It would seem that a call to your CC issuer is in order.
<< <i>I received a call from Chase last Friday Aug. 17th that, for the 1st time ever, my credit card had fraudulently been charged with a $1 charge, $30 from bodybuilder.com and hundreds of dollars on some spanish airline(CM?). I collect paper money (not coins) but I have, in the last year, purchased from multiple online coin shops when they were having specials on silver eagles. I was not in Philly but after reading this thread I can't help but feel like all these numbers were compromised through one of the larger (no idea which) online coin shops. sorry about the blank post above, thought i was logging in. >>
Add my name to the ever growing list. I quoted this post because this is almost exactly what happened to my card. I was not in Philly for the ANA show, but yesterday someone charged $10 on my AMEX to American Endowment? Today they attempted to charge $575 to an airline based in Los Angeles but I received a fraud protection alert and cancelled the card within 30 minutes of the transaction. I don't use my AMEX for online coin purchases but I did use it for my ANA & NGC memberships.
I think we'll all be getting a communication from somebody soon. JMHO of course...

UPDATE: mid-August 2012 Stolen Credit Card (CC) Info ...
It's probably a major card processing firm.
and the fact that people are still getting hit is why I pursued this so hard.... imagine if it was a debit card.... we'd have another someone living off $28 until their bank account is fixed.
Luckily all the transactions were caught.
they had actually blocked another charge for about $4k but didn't bother to call me
All charged to PA businesses, sounds like a local job.
