Just cancelled my bank card, some pikey piece of steaming horse dung has made a 'card purchase' with my card 2 days in a row to 'PAYPAL SHOP4GAMIN'
Not a great amount, but a great inconvenience. Yesterdays purchase was £17.04 and todays was £19.34, i can only assume they was doing small and often amounts in the hope i wouldn't realise.
Each transaction comes with a reference number, its a shame i can't find out the shop/website and trace these degenerates

surely you shouldnt have to trace it? it should be your bank who finds the shop, and the police who go and find out the delivery adress?

Not sure? I put the exact match 'shop4gamin' and it came up with nothing. Ive never used that site though.
If it is that site i could ring them up, give my card deatils (which are now void), the reference number, and query the delivery address as i think i made a mistake when ordering?

Yeah i cancelled it this morning. The last time i used it was in Tesco's garage i think. I only ever fill up at Tesco's or BP so could be either.
Haven't used a cash machine in ages, only use barclays when i do and always check them before.
The last time i used it online was for www.cyberbingo.co.uk
