Don't you have to provide the Card Security Code when using Credit Cards for online purchases?

Yes, it did have a sticker on it saying to leave if no one was home, however on this occasion there were people home to receive it.

Well, the bank has done its job and cleared this matter and a new Card and Reimbursement of funds.
We also told them that we had actually received a box with something inside, it was actually 13 kgs worth, anyway they told us to bring it to the Bank, which seemed quite odd to me.
So next business day we are going to walk in a big box of stuff and say, " here ya go, this is all yours, thank you "

Hadn't heard of that one. Good point though.
Just another reason to justify me getting a cctv camera installed covering my driveway...

However, with today's attitude to all things terrorist and stuff, what would it look like if a fellow walks into a bank with and unmarked heavy box.

I reckon the cops would be there in 3 minutes and they would evacuate the place, jeepers i might even be shot.

So now i intend to go to the bank first and explain that i am coming in with a big box of stuff.
