In a previous article, "Dan Luke" said:
Also, is MBNA covering the charges?


Yes.


I use my MBNA card for all my on-line purchases (a throwback to when it
had a very low credit limit) and for my chart subscriptions and the like.
In the past 6 months it's been stolen twice - the first time it was used
to buy a few dozen subscriptions to the same porn web site, the second
time it was used to (attempt) to buy something worth seven hundred dollars
from the US Sailing Association web site. This is puzzling because I
don't use Windows or Internet Exploder, so it probably wasn't stolen off
my computer, but more likely off one of the vendors sites. It's also
annoying, because every time it happens I have to call up a bunch of
people and change the card information on my subscriptions.

On the plus side, in both cases MBNA spotted the fraud before I got my
bill, so I wasn't out a penny.
