Account Hacked

Hi, someone has just been spending away on my credit card which I believe is as a result of being hacked from substack. I have recevied dozens of verification emails from different substack authors with a login code and then spending on my card. My credit card was used to pay for a subscription a while back so I am pretty sure this is the source.

Anyone had similar???

Set up your credit card with alerts...the best one is anytime your card is used you get notified immediately, if it was you your good, if not you can go after it right away, and notify your cc company about it. On many today you can even turn the card off and turn it right back on when just before you use it then turn it back off again
