What should I do if my credit card information is stolen?

1. Call your credit card issuer. Explain that you suspect your credit card information has been stolen. Most issuers have a 24/7 service available so you can do this right away.
2. Request a new card. Ask your issuer to close your current account and send you a replacement.
3. Watch your statements. Monitor your credit card statements for any suspicious activity and the new card’s delivery.
4. Check your credit report. Request a free credit report from all three credit bureaus and scan it for unauthorized charges or accounts. If you spot any suspicious activity, contact the credit bureaus right away.
5. Look into credit monitoring. Consider signing up for a credit monitoring service. It can help you if there's any attempted fraud in the future.
