First, let me say I do not shop at Family Dollar Store. Thanks to my credit card company, I found there was suspected credit card fraud that had occurred on one of my cards.

The card was still in my possession but someone had used my number to charge items at 2 Family Dollar stores in another state.

Apparently Family Dollar does not require the card to be possession or to request ID in such a situation. If you shop at Family Dollar, I would advise you not to use a credit card since Family Dollar apparently does not care about protecting your privacy.

Monetary Loss: $350.

Location: Leesburg, Georgia

I am currently going through the same situation. It was ran at several family dollar stores in Fresno, Ca and Las Vegas.

I live in Florida and I have possession of my card. How is this even possible?

It has happen to me today

The same thing just happened to me, I used my card in Pennsylvania and had two charges at the Detroit family Dollar maxing out my bank account...I talked to my local store, family Dollar corporate, district manager...none of them will do anything. I have to of course go through the fraud Dept of my bank and wait 2 weeks to get my paycheck back leaving me broke.

Do they care?

Nope! This is definitely internal!

I had a friend who had hundreds of dollars in charges made to dirty phone talk lines to a pre-approved credit card in their name that was sent to them that they had thrown in the garbage unopened. The credit card company said that they were all made from Pay-Phones.

They never found out who made the calls , but the credit card company had the charges removed and cancelled the card. So, you should always be very careful with your credit card number so that it doesn't fall into the wrong hands.

Someone pilfering through the garbage could find a pre-approved credit card in your name and go out and make all sorts of charges. That's what happened to my friend.

There must be some mistake. This phone number is my wife’s. We couldn’t figure out why everyone called asking if this is family dollar.

Guest

I just lost 2500 *** dollars. Many transactions at Family Dollar to my credit card, which is still in my possession. Never shopped there before.

Guest

These Family Dollar stores are horrible in EVERY way!!!

Guest

I've had 600 taken through the family dollar due to fraudulent activity. I would love to set up a class action lawsuit, and I know some good lawyers.

It makes total sense whoever is working has to be stealing the number and then either using ur card to buy something (most likely handling the purchase themselves or maybe a bff co-worker) Then returning it for cash. I would demand they watch their cameras and take legal action as well as criminal charges of theft!

God only knows how much money they've racked up with this lil trick! I was a manager at a fast food chain si I've seen it all. The store is lying if they say there's no way to tell. If it's a manager saying that when you called then I guarantee its that crook manager doing the dirt!

A manager has to override the use of credit card punch in without card or id! There's no way they would allow a cashier to do that at their own discretion way too much of a liability with identity theft and credit card fraud!

I'd call corporate and ask for the highest person that handles this stuff and you'll get results! Good luck!

Amanager can not override a manually entered credit card number, because the system does not allow for all enerys for credit or debit cards. Also at no time is a Family Dollar employee in possession of a customer's card so how would they get the card number?

She is correct we are not allowed to touch a credit or debit card and you cannot enter a card manually. The customer can enter an EBT Card manually but that is the only card the system will except.

First off as an extra security Family Dollar does not allow same Dollar amount purchases back to back, the system rejects it saying duplicate transaction not allowed.

My card was charged almost $500.00 and my bank tells me that my chip was used. I have requested for the bank to extend their review for this transaction.

I shopped there with my debit chip inserted.

On December 28, 2018, My card was in my possession and still used as the banked stated they would take back the credit they had issued me. I'm am furious.
