I had the same thing about 12 months ago, when two attempts were made to place two 400 pound (approx $950 AU) online bets on my credit card account.
Fortunatley, the credit card company were quite 'switched on' and blocked the payment, 'froze' my account, and contacted me to ask if the transactions were genuine or not.
Apparently, they monitor accounts and look for unusual transactions. Unusual to the account holders normal spending pattern that is.
Hence my having to inform them that I was going to be in WA, for a few weeks, and the dates involved.
