<prompt> Human: So I bank through a local credit union and my credit card number was just stolen for the third time in about a years span. Mind you just the number, Ive never had my physical card stolen. My debit card number was also stolen once. Usually the bank is good about noticing fraudulent charges on my account and theyll call me. This time, however, they didnt. Luckily I always check my accounts frequently and I noticed two charges to Comcast Chicago I do not live in Chicago. So I called them, cancelled my card, and got them to start the refund process its still not off my account. This all happened Wednesday nightThursday morning. My question is can I ask that the bank do anything as compensation for their bad security? I know people steal card info from vendors, not banks, but I mean something has to be wrong with the banks security if theyre a primeeasy target to lift numbers from. Thanks guys!EDIT: Thanks to everyone who gave me sound advice. Im not really sure why people were downvoting my comments when I was just asking for some advice but ok lolAssistant: What happened that makes you think the bank is the source of your card number theft? Card numbersinfo are more often stolen through compromised card swipes or by someone where youve used the card restaurants, for example. And Ive heard that its possible for thieves to use shimmers to read data from cards with embedded chips.Human: Just the fact that its happened so many times in a year. I dont shop anywhere shady, dont give out my credit card over the phone, or anything like that. I guess thieves are just a lot more crafty than I realize.  <response>: It is weird that youve been the victim so many times, but to ask them for compensation or something similar you would need some solid evidence that the bank was the source. See other comments about skimmers, especially gas stations and ATMs.
