Bad BHQ Customer Credit Card Data Breach 2021

Cant believe I just saw this thread...

My card was on there I think from a year ago due to an exclusive run. About a month ago I got 2 charges, both in the wee crack of dawn (so they know people wouldn't be awake) on a Friday, one for UHaul and one for some random floor scrubber company lol, about 1700$. Call bank, sorted it out, ASSUMED it was BHQ, since the charges were all in their area...didn't want to start accusing people.

Never got that email whatsoever, would've been NICE so I'd remove and cancel my CC in advance before going through all this and potentially dipping my credit score.

I have no problem with BHQ, some great folks there. But with so many alternative places to buy, DLT, KC, sooner, WM, etc...I'm probably going to be too gunshy to go back. Last time I got thefted was 12 years ago lol.

Thanks for all the info guys, I will refer this to my bank as I think my case is still under investigation, but they did give me refund-in-advance since they like me.
 
Thinking back, my credit card had 2 back to back fraud charges in Feb. for some random glass/crystal shop. Both were like $199 each. Got a new card and got the refund from Citi, but now I am thinking it came from the BHQ issue.
 
Received an email from Amex this weekend that they were issuing me a new card due to fraudulent activities. I called and they stated that they had blocked “multiple” transaction attempts over the past 60 days and they were sending me a new card. Good riddance BHQ
 
Just seeing this now. This happened to me in mid-March and I sent an e-mail to BladeHQ to give them a heads-up. Also tried posting a warning that day on another forum, but it was met with a less than favorable reception. I use a virtual CC with them, now, that's only good at their site. If someone steals the card number and tries to use it somewhere else, it will be denied.
