I had an unauthorized purchase on a card I used there last year so I guess that explains it. At the time I assumed it had got skimmed in a vending machine.

There website and app never looked safe to actually make purchases from – I was skeptical at best

I was literally just looking at their site to get some prices…. Going to go in store now to buy what I need now…..

Out of curiosity, would something like this also affect a mobile browser? I made my purchase through chrome on my android.

Canada Computers has not made a statement yet
and the “skimmer” which apparently was active since early december just mysteriously dissapeared shortly after they were called out on reddit.
should just assume Canada Computers is guilty at this point

Damn, I bought something there early Jan but for whatever reason I can’t recall now, I put the order online but set to pay in store. Checked my CC statement and looks like I dodged a bullet, but I’ll keep an eye on it for a bit.

Am I screwed if I bought in store?

Bought something in December online, card had unauthorized charges 3 days later. Now I know where it happened.
