I can't see that it is misuse. You used your card to pay for the items received. The seller processed the amount due in two seperate transactions. The end result is the same.

Yes I agree. If a fuss was to be made and credit card company does reverse the charges, what is the real intention of the OP?

The long card number shouldn't have been on anything they had either though?

How did they have an of the details off the card except the last 4 numbers and possibly the expiry?

All retailers have your full card number and some even have your name as printed on your card.

How do you think TK Maxx happed? http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/business/6508983.stm

The last four digits shown on your receipt ( the consumer ) is usually for your own security ie. dropping your receipt in the street.
