JMBULLION.COM Lancaster PA / Clayton NY TI Show Sat July 27th possible credit card theft...anyone el

I was reviewing my credit card purchases last nite and found someone starting on the 27th of July ran up over $6000 in purchases on my credit card- Amex, a good junk was with JMBULLION.COM of Lancaster, PA - I've never dealt with them. That is however the day I attended the Clayton, NY show in the thousand islands region of upstate NY- I never used my card there or removed it from my wallet- but is it a coincidence? I thought I remember reading on the forum somewhere about a show where a bunch of people got hit by thieves who used sometype of scanner that could read your card in your wallet ? Just thought I would give a heads up out there for anyone who attended the show.

    After the ANA in Philly last year it appeared that a fair number of folks had complained of credit card theft, but I do not know if the common thread was the ANA show. There are RFID readers that can clone a card in someone else's possession, but in order for this technology to work the card has to have an RFID chip embedded into it and many (most?) cards do not use this technology.
