Realised this morning it was missing but don't know when i last had it i use it for emergencies as it has a low limit.
Just phoned the bank its with and went through the security questions. He asked quite alot which made me a bit suspicious, he then asked my address to which i replied.
He then said "that's funny you didn't know that half an hour ago!" obviously i said what you on about, he then said you phoned up to get your balance to which i denied. He then said my balance! My reply was "FCUKING HELL!" he then realised it wasn't me earlier and put me through to fraud, basically someone paid £33,000 into it yesterday from stolen cards and tried to spend on it.
I was shocked more than anything, going down the police to report it later. Apparently this type of fraud has been happening alot recently.
Anyway im gonna make sure i only have cards i use everyday in my wallet from now on
