HSBC Credit Card — Disputed Transaction

Dear Sir / Madam,

I have a Gold Credit Card of HSBC Bank. I logged in to My Internet Banking account on 20/10/2009 First time and noticed that there are two transaction on my name. First Transaction is of Rs. 40000/- and other Transaction is of Rs. 10000/-. Both the transaction are done in the Merchant Name "Tata Indicom Billdesk Mumbai IN". This transaction was not done by me and amazingly this time, I was travelling in Train. I have informed back about this and they suggested that I need file a "Disputed Transaction Case" with Bank. I did that and they temporarily credited back this amount to me. Now they are saying that they are taking this issue with the Merchant Bank and it will take 30-45 days. But through this compaint

I have come to know that the same case happened with a Customer Also in which the Credit Card was of ABN AMRO and the Merchant was same and the Bank is pressuring to pay the amount.

HSBC Bank gives a Security device which generates a six digit Code without which it is impossible to made a transaction. Also After Ist Aug, 2009, it is not possible to made any transaction without a Security PIN.

This is clearly the Fraud By Bank and I request you to please have a look into this matter.

Both the transactions were made on 20/10/2009.

Thanks and Regards,
Anil

That is why I have kept my credit limit as 40000/- only. Credit card fraud is done by a organised crime syndicate. Fraudsters spend money on computer systems programmers, hackers and agents to procure card nos, pin nos etc and they use these to make online purchases hide their IP codes, change their addresses, phone nos, etc periodically. All this set up needs money. After spending so much money they will not be interested in small fraud of Rs.10000/- or 20000/-.

If we keep our credit limit know our card will not show up on any online hackers search who will be searching for cards with high credit limits. I think I better reduce my credit limit to 25000/- to reduce the damage and also to be less attractive to a potential hacker or online criminal.
