one was with a different bank and the other was just with our primary bank

1st one charged money from her account from a florida company online...for a phone??

2nd charged our primary from a florida company called hello mobile and within minutes at a hempstead ny att t store
not huge sums of money, less than 500

both places this last time took order on line. it seems the NY att store has a number you call and it prompts you through several responses and you never need to actually speak to a person at store, it transfers you to att main web for payments etc. they both have been cooperative and bank is putting my money back by friday.
our primary bank has a very very tight monitoring program and of course called us almost as it happened to inquire and lock her card.
i have restrictions set if we use our debit or credit card outside of what i call the 100 mile radius.
we get instant notifications and phone call if its over a set dollar amount.

we practice very tight , or so we thought security in regards to bank cards
no web store has our card info, except express cripts and we have to have that one or congress will not let them send out meds...real nice
for that reason the express scripts account is drawn from a 3rd bank we only use for meds and not tied to anyone else. and only keeps 200 in it.

so how did a person get her numbers, and her 3 digit code off the card? her cards expire date had just changed in november, along with a new number when the card was replaced because of expiration date
we both shopped at same locations of stores around us,
so now we get all new cards and numbers in a wide net of caution and have changed all the 100s of passwords

or are we just in the que for thieves lately
