I check my activity pretty much on a daily basis, and my credit cards at least once a week, if not more.
I have credit cards alerts established so that I'm notified for any purchase over $50.00. Anytime I travel, I notify my credit card company so that they know what's going on.
A little vigilance (okay, a lot) goes a long ways to ward off fraud.
My point above is that most of the times I have ordered the stuff comes in increments and they must somehow store all that is needed to charge the card unlike say the place I get husqvarna motorcycle parts from that has to call me up when the back ordered stuff comes in. The phone might not cure the underlying problem in this case.Why not just use a LANDLINE, and order over the TELEPHONE? You are covered by Federal wiretap laws on that and won't get hacked.

glad I haven't bought from baileys in a few years now
This explains a lot for me. I had a $400 charge to my visa on walmart.com (US site). That worked out to $577 dollars canadian (nice exchange rate eh?). Anyways, as always Visa was awesome about it and I got my money back. They also tried to purchase something from Itunes, but with the card number already linked to my account that wouldnt work.
That being said, nothing against Bailey's. This kinda stuff happens all the time.
