I found a charge of $180 by D.B. BAHN A-NR. I don’t know what this company is dealing with and where did they get my credit card info. I called to bank to stop the transaction. They told it is well-known scam and they’ll do all they can.

I want to add to what I have written above about Google and Google apps. All of the info I wrote on the page I read on the internet in more than one place. I don't just read something once and become an alarmist. It can be found there if you want to look it up. Except for the attempted theft to my account. That happened to me with witnesses to back it up. Plus some documentation.

Hello. I may have an answer to where did they get my credit card information. Last November I found an attempted transfer of $50.00 from my PayPal account to someone I didn't know. It happened through Facebook Messenger. My daughter ask me if I had Google Pay and I said I did. I checked and there are all my debit and credit card numbers listed. Google is known for having the most tracking bots in their programs and they save all of your information even if you check the box not to. I had no idea that they had my numbers in Google Pay until my daughter told me. They took and listed them without my permission just like they have taken my information off my pc and android phone and put it on line in Drive and other places. Especially if you use Google and haven't unchecked all of the permissions they ask for. Back to the attempt. Someone went into my Messenger account, simple to do I found out, and all they did was put in "Send $50.00 to (name). That was it. My daughter who has never done it before showed me how by sending a dollar to her account. Took her two minutes to do it. Without knowing my password or anything else. i went through a lot of crap since having to change passwords three or four times a week and having my accounts locked, etc. With your numbers listed in Google Pay a person doesn't have to know your number to steal from you, but if they can get into Google Pay they can get all your needed information to take what they want. I deleted my numbers, cancelled and ordered new cards, deleted Google Pay, deleted Facebook and Messenger, and changed all my permissions with Google to No. If you have an android phone you should know that Google has control to an extent of anything in it. Especially if the apps come from Google Play Store. And if you deactivate Google Play Services, Google WILL mess up all your apps on the phone. They DO have access to any information on your phone or PC if they want it if you use Google. They seem to take what they want.
In short, if you have Google and Google Pay or have ever bought anything from Google, game, app, etc. you can bet they have your credit card numbers somewhere and they are not safe. Facebook is a Google company so they control it too.
All of this can be checked out on line if you do the searching. But unless you have an enormous amount of time, don't use Edge to search it. You will get hundreds of listings to unrelated sites that have nothing to do with your question you ask in the browser.
And if you use Sync in your Google browser Google will Sync your info into other places on line. Like Google Drive. I deleted Drive too to stop it and do not use Sync because a lot of my phone contacts disappeared from my phone one day and I found them a few weeks later listed in my email contacts in gmail. I am slowly phasing out all Google anything from my phone and PC because they have so much control over you and what ever you do online.
Oh, and unrelated, sort of. Did you know that the creator of Google and the head of the CIA keep their camera covered on their PCs when not in use. Certain apps can open your camera and microphone without you being aware of it and watch and listen. Just a bit of info. It is online. I know this sounds crazy but it is the price of technology today. Very convenient and dangerous it sometimes seems.

I also had 7 transactions from this company debited from my card on 6th Aug 2019. I have no idea how they got the card details and I have had to cancel my card and won't be home for another month to collect a new one - I'm also nowhere near Europe - I'm in Africa!
The company clearly haven't done anything about the scam yet are DB Bahn-A-NR aware that their company is being used like this?

Same thing happened with me, I never share my account details, 5 transaction from 1:24 am to 3:25 am 1700 AED gone from my account and my boss just credited my salary for Christmas. Banks says they need 90 days to investigate its not even 24 hours yet.

Me too, my credit card was hacked to buy something from DB BAHN A-NR on Nov.17th 2018, amount EUR 190.00 x 2 times. From this conversation thread, it has been happened since 2017 and now 2018 ! The website owner knows this ? I will be writing to them today. Hope it helps.

Hi everyone, last week I made a purchase in a german company called recordsale.de using paypal and this weekend, I got a charge of the purchase of 150 EUR through PAYPAL what was the agreed purchase, and 5 additional charges of 148 EUR totalling 744 EUR! until they reached the card limit, with this same description you mentioned, Db Bahn A-nr D2tgey . I have filed a claim with Paypal and with VISA and recordsale, until now recordsale and PAYPAL both say that has nothing to do with them. Its my problem.. So I´m looking for legal actions against both, waiting still for the answer from VISA.

Why do the regulatory agencies allow these people or whatever play havoc with our credit cards, it has just happened to us.
