Sorry to hear that happened, Dash. I can certainly see why airports would be a nightmare for such fraud - a bazillion victims a day, 90% of whom won't notice until they're half-way around the world. Fertile ground!

It's happened to us a several times. One time some guy in Allentown PA spent $5 grand - US, no less! - on furniture! Yeeesh .... I couldn't afford to drop that much on furniture on my credit card! Pisses me off the somebody else thinks they can! I was soooo mad - and it was G's card!

We try to use cash all the way in Jamaica - and the bank cards are only for serious emergencies at a bank only!

You know, now that I think of it, I don' think I know anyone who has not had their credit card or bank card frauded at least once. That's pretty sick - and not how the kids mean "sick" either - I mean sad and bad!

Note to self for next trips: No credit cards at the airports!!!!!!
