Just a heads'-up....Credit Card info stolen/used after online purchase. BEWARE
The reason for this post is to let members know of an incident I had after ordering parts from d2moto.com.
On Monday I find a thread in the softail forum about spike air intakes (https://www.hdforums.com/forum/softa...ions-ebay.html), and decide after reading it to order one off of the d2moto.com website. I go thru the order process using my Bank of America Visa (the order process page HAS the 'secure' logo) and sit back waiting on my new goody.
On Tuesday afternoon, I find an email from Bank of America advising me of possible fraudulent charges to my CC. So I logged into my acct, and sure as hell, there are 3 pending charges to "Gamecard Hanoi" and 1 pending charge to a gas station in California (I'm in Atlanta). So I called BoA's fraud department to have my CC killed and the charges removed. They were great about the whole thing and took care of it with NO cost to me.
I then called d2moto to advise them that their files may have been compromised and was told by 'Victoria' that she would let the owner know ASAP.
The last legitimate activity on my card was 10/7/09, and I did the swipe so I know the card wasn't cloned out of my sight. That's my story...I'm stickin to it. Anyone else have this happen after ordering from d2moto.com?

My sister had her CC info stolen by a waitress at an upscale restaurant, so, it's not just an online thing. You have to stay alert all the time.
One good online safety measure - some CC's will give you a one-time-use number to use for online orders. I've done that several times when making online purchases from companies I was not familiar with.

Credit monitoring or an identify protection company. I have it set up with the bureaus to require me to be cleared for any purchase over a certain amount. Also, I routinely check my cards to ensure that purchases made were my own
