"You're at a restaurant, you've just finished eating dinner, the bill arrives, you reach for your wallet and oh-oh, your credit cards are missing. Hello, I'm Robert Todd and I'm here to answer the question, how do I report the loss of credit cards and fraud? Well first thing you want to do is you want to be sure and notify immediately the issuer of each credit card. Generally, this information was provided you when you were sent the credit card. It's not usually on the credit card, it wouldn't do any much good if it was if you're missing the credit card. So it's probably advisable when you are issued a credit card to put in a safe place the identity of the issuer of the credit cards that you have that available if and when, your credit card show up missing. The next thing you want to do is if you suspect fraud is to notify the Federal Trade Commission or the FTC. They have a website at www.ftc.gov and a toll free no. 1-877-FTCHELP. I'm Robert Todd and thank your for watching."
