I've been scammed- happy Christmas to me!

Enjoying Strictly and a glass of wine last night when I noticed my banking app notify me of a payment for £36 from Morrisons. Immediately knew it wasn't mine, so cancelled my card & reported it to my bank. When I then checked my emails, Morrisons had emailed a confirmation of a instant delivery order to an address in London (I'm in Wales) so I couldn't even cancel the order as it had already gone - I assume an Uber type delivery 😒Anyway card now cancelled, password changed etc. I rang Morrisons to advise them this morning, they seemed fairly disinterested but told me they'd raise a case with the fraud team.
Sigh! So not a huge amount of money but just annoying and inconvenient as I have to await a new card. Grr!! It's a big reminder to me not to save cards on any accounts to prevent these things happening.

Cripes. Well done for noticing! I'm not sure I would've done, as I buy everything online. Did they order anything interesting? One time my card was cloned by someone who used it for a long weekend in France with, car hire, restaurants, hotel and shopping that I would've really enjoyed. Sneaky bastards.

Ha! Well they ordered steaks and a few Dove products- random! Clearly fancied a steak dinner and a lovely pampering bath after all the scamming.
My banking app notifications have been a saviour in noticing these things, lost my card this time last year and similar scenario, noticed lots of random purchases popping up 😮
