I've just had a credit card statement where there's a payment of over £800 to wonga.com. ( I've never used them or paid off any debt for anyone else for them or any other company. )
The cards not been out of my sight when I've used it, and I'm quite careful online, so I'm not sure how anyone has got hold of the details. Which is quite worrying. There's only me in the house, and I trust my work colleagues which is the only place my bag is left unattended, and no-one else has access.
So the cards cancelled and the card company is sending out the paperwork to say it's nothing to do with me.
Only I'm wondering if there's anything else I should be doing - contact wonga directly or leave that to the credit card company? And how do I check my other debit/credit cards are ok?
Thanks

Pedant alert - it's could have, not could of.
