Do You Need a Fraud Claim or a Dispute?
If you notice a transaction you don't recognize, the next step is determining whether the transaction is fraud or a dispute.
Fraud
Fraud occurs when someone uses your card or account without your authorization.
Examples include:
- Unauthorized purchases
- Transactions made using a stolen card
- Charges from someone who gained access to your card information
Dispute
A dispute occurs when you authorized the transaction, but there is an issue with the purchase.
Examples include:
- Being charged twice
- Receiving the wrong item
- Not receiving a product or service you paid for
Next Steps
If you're unsure whether your situation is fraud or a dispute, review our "Fraud vs. Dispute" article or contact Member Services for assistance.
