Scammers

Have just had 48,500 points stolen from my Sainsbury's Nectar card. Still have my card. Reported problem and will get refund. Contacted one of the stores where it was used and gave time and date of use for CCTV monitoring. A nectar-linked firm must have been hacked, possibly. Am not on social media. Has this happened to other people?

This report is dated October 24 but it does seem happen, it's not the first article I've read about it.

Pleased you are getting your refund

Barry1010 - thank you for the link. Worrying that two months after the article was written, this is still happening.

It's been going on for years. How much are your points worth?

Once had my TESCO points nicked.  Got them back no problem.  Never found out what happened.

Ends up with customers paying more to cover these costs.
