If you see fraudulent charges on your statement or suspect somebody skimmed your credit card, follow these steps:

  • Alert your credit card issuer: Report suspicious activity to your card company immediately. Many credit cards have zero liability for fraud, which means you will not be responsible for paying back fraudulent charges if you report within 30 days.
  • Place a credit freeze on your report: A credit freeze prevents identity thieves from using your credit report to create new accounts or open new lines of credit in your name.
  • File a police report: Report the credit card skimming incident to your local police station. If you suspect a credit card skimmer in a specific location, report it immediately so the police can investigate and help prevent theft from happening to others.
