Your card details were likely read by someone with a card reader that can scan the RFID info from your card and generate a new one. There are RFID blocking sleeves for your card that prevent this. Or multiple cards stored together apparently blocks it too. As it's a credit card, and not an ATM, you are protected from fraud so it's really not an issue. Do as someone else suggested and set up notifications for each transaction. I use foreign credit cards as much as I can because it's the cheapest way to access money in that country.

Trudeau Blasts US Tariffs, Vows Canada Will Stand Strong
gargamon replied to Social Media's topic in World News
It's Trump's brainless idea to get rid of income taxes. Tarrifs on everything then his election promises of no tax on tips, social security, etc can be achieved. Too bad for the little guy, though. Everything they buy will cost much more and overall their standard of living will drop. The millionaire/billionaire class will do much better as their investments will be tax free and only what they consume will cost more. Think of it as a consumption tax, benefits the rich snd screws the poor. -

I've been using 24 hour fully refundable tickets from Expedia. Need one, buy it. Show it to the agent. Cancel it at the gate. -

Retirement extension
gargamon replied to Badrabbit's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
I'm so glad I just got my DTV through Vancouver. No more dealing with those idiots on soi 5. No more 800k or 65k/month. No more re-entry stamps. No more 90 day reports(not sure on this one). They rejected my initial request for DTV as an investor, but a letter from Bumrungrad got it approved in about an hour. Expires in 2030. -

Trump only had those properties because the Russians bought them for him.

Idiot. The contracts finished in the Bush regime and payment stopped then. Musk and his minions claim it as something they found. Bad DOGE, bad.

DOGE Secretly Changes Receipts for Almost Half Its Supposed Savings Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency is once again reorganizing its wall of hunting trophies from supposedly slain government contracts. This time, it has quietly removed five of its seven largest kills from last week, erasing $4 billion in supposed savings. The New York Times reported Monday that the night before, DOGE erased or altered 1,000 claimed savings, or roughly 40 percent of entries into its “wall of receipts,” which has previously proven to be exaggerated or fraudulent. That appears to have been the case with the contracts that were removed Sunday. The removals included the site’s biggest trophy, a canceled contract with Centennial Technologies for technical support for the IRS, which was supposedly worth $1.9 billion. Although DOGE had bragged about the “incredible job” the U.S. Treasury had done in identifying the waste, the Times reported earlier last month that the contract had actually been canceled in November, during the Biden administration. On Sunday, it disappeared from the wall. Another vanished entry claimed $133 million in savings from canceling a contract between USAID and development firm Chemonics International in Libya, but a LinkedIn post revealed that the contract had ended last year. In some cases, it seems that DOGE didn’t even earn its biggest hunting trophies. Other entries were removed due to obvious accounting mistakes that appeared to be the product of human error. One claimed $149 million in savings from a canceled contract to provide administrative support to the Department of Health and Human Services. But DOGE’s website linked to the wrong contract, which didn’t list the correct company, purpose, or value. Even after the latest round of deletions, errors still persisted on the site. DOGE still claimed that it had saved $106 million by canceling two contracts for administrative support to the U.S. Coast Guard—but in reality, those contracts were completed during the Bush administration. https://www.yahoo.com/news/doge-just-changed-almost-half-195929564.html

Haha. Your screenshot conviently excluded the meat of the article. Any you didn't provide the link to back it up. Typical MAGA moron nonsense. Well. Here's the link. https://time.com/7258453/trump-musk-social-security-dead-fraud-fact-check/ And here's what it really says. WASHINGTON — The Trump administration is falsely claiming that tens of millions of dead people over 100 years old are receiving Social Security payments. Over the past few days, President Donald Trump and billionaire adviser Elon Musk have said on social media and in press briefings that people who are 100, 200 and even 300 years old are improperly getting benefits—a “HUGE problem,” Musk wrote, as his Department of Government Efficiency digs into federal agencies to root out waste, fraud and abuse. Read More: Inside Elon Musk’s War on Washington It is true that improper payments have been made, including some to dead people. But the numbers thrown out by Musk and the White House are overstated and misrepresent Social Security data.

DOGE schedule? 555 I've seen no evidence of dead people receiving SS. Only Musk saying people 150 years old were getting it. No evidence. Typical MAGA nonsense.

Hyaluronic Acid knee injection, where in Bangkok please?
gargamon replied to Pappap's topic in Health and Medicine
Had anyone on here actually tried this new treatment? As far as I can tell, it's on approval track in both Canada and the US. I think if it works for a few years I'd much prefer doing this every few years instead of a hip replacement. I may even fly to Europe to get it done.
