Yet anothter example of the crazy world which we inhabit. This breed of news is all to often...indeed almost daily! I recommend online netizens to use at least paypal instead of credit cards online. If you must use a credit card, use one where you can keep the available balance low until you wish to use it. This has saved me many times as it alerts the bank when fraudulent transactions are attempted.
Better still, research and use cryptocurrency. A hardware wallet is the best choice for savings. Be careful storing any online. Best regards!
