credit card advice

This tip comes via Kristen in RI. Both she and her husband updated FB today on the topic and its definitely relevant for here.

Make sure to check your credit card statements when they come in the mail, or be vigilant online. It seems some thugs in NC went into a Wal-Mart I believe and used their card. Their credit card company was suspicious and called them immediately. But what if your company isn't as aware?

When the statement comes in, go line by line. Ask your spouse about his/her purchases. If there is ANY question, call the credit card company. The holidays are expensive enough, you do not want to be paying for some thief 1,000 miles away.
