When Your Credit Card Decides to Cause Drama
Sometimes, life sends little reminders that even everyday things deserve attention.
Recently, my bank flagged a small USD charge as suspicious. My card was temporarily deactivated and I had to call the credit card center to resolve it.
At first, I was surprised what triggered the alert? After checking, it turned out to be a small fraudulent charge; a common “test” amount that scammers often try first.
The bank was quick to act and I now have a plan to cancel the old card and get a replacement. My two active subscriptions will be updated and my finances remain secure.
What struck me most wasn’t the inconvenience. It was how calmly everything was handled; by the bank and by me. No panic. No stress. Just verification, action and moving forward.
Takeaway? Life sometimes throws minor curveballs. How we respond…calmly, mindfully and with practical action, makes all the difference.
