FOC creditcard fraud?

I just got a notification last night someone tried to purchase something from my credit card from a merchant VITACOST.COM

I WAS WONDERING if anyone of you that had fraud charges from your card, was vitacost.com one of them ?

It is the same credit card when I purchased a handgun from FOC during the summer months
 
I highly suggest if you have purchased anything from FOC that you proactively change your credit card. It is clear that the numbers and your personal information is out there and that as it filters through various hands, more attempts on numbers will be made.

Why wait until this happens, prevent a headache now and change your card before it happens. I found out my card was compromised while on vacation and it made everything a huge pain to deal with.
 
Huh...stumbled across this thread (not here much). In my 30ish years of having credit cards, I've never run into any fraud, but a month and a bit ago I did...almost 10k worth of stuff that was attempted through a new card that I'd used maybe 5 times. A month earlier I'd purchased through foc. Does that prove anything? Nope; but after reading this thread I have to wonder...
I did catch the fraud as I have my cards set up to send an email every time they're used.

while I was in UK on August 26, my cc was charged for $350 in Canada Wonderland. Luckily I had text message informing me the charge immediately when it happened. I had to make a 20 minutes long distance call to the cc company and opened a dispute case. As of now it's still ongoing.
I am 100% sure it's FOC.

I have purchased credit monitoring product from Equifax and leave it on for at least a year and half. I will be notified for any credit check or identity verification immediately.

Again, I have said this multiple times, but not enough, let me say it again: F--K you FOC.

Count me in too. July 25 placed an order with FOC, Aug 26th my card got compromised and ran up. I havent been on cgn much lately, but put it together after reading this thread.
 
The tally of absconded funds in this thread alone is staggering. I'm in the wrong game, why work when you can just steal? Way more return on investment, little to no risk.

Still nothing new from FOC ?

Absent something clear & convincing it's making it hard to consider using them in the future.

Same here. I was so close to buying another gun from them but decided not to after having to deal with the fraudulent charges on my card. And the fact that they sat on my purchase for 2 weeks before submitting the transfer request, and sat on it for another 2.5 weeks after the transfer went through before shipping. In total, they sat on my order for over a month.

It's just not worth the hassle.
 
Add me to the list of fraudulent credit card charges after a purchasefrom FOC. My bank flagged the 3rd charge from Apple.com and closed my card.
 
Dayum, I wasn't aware of any of this until I came across this thread just now. Luckily my only FOC purchase was at TACCOM back in September and is presumably not affected.

That said, I was literally going to hit buy on some CZ 457 magazines that came in stock today when I started reading this thread. Think I'll pass on this purchase or go somewhere else.
 
Add me to the list..... purchases made at FOC on 2 of my credit cards and weeks later they are both compromised.....jesus christ take the online store down.
 
Hey where’s the Dbag that was defending FOC saying it was an isolated incident and that we were all being slanderous? Love to hear what he has to say.
