      Run away !!! I reported stolen credit card 2 hours after it happened. But it was charged ~$8K in Target obviously it was a fraud. Instead of stopping the transaction they said no worries you will get it back once its processed in the system. Long story short in 2 months they said they found no fraud so I get no return. You also can't talk to anyone. Just file a form. Nothing else.I will go to court to get my money back.
