I was buying some Christmas gifts and I happened to see in my list of Amazon payment methods an American Express card. It has my name and an expiration date of 11/29. To my knowledge I do NOT have any Amex card, I had one in the past a VERY long time ago. I am worried this might be related to some kind of identity theft activity. How can I find out if this is some kind of an error vs there is an AMEX card account out there somewhere with my name?
Like the title says this is the 1st statement with the Amex Amazon and I didn't realize until now how much of a pain it is to actually get the "cash back". I only had 2 purchases totaling about $540... So 5% CB is $27. But with Amex you can only use the cash back points towards purchases for less than your point balance with a $10 minimum... So since I have $27 in cash back but a charge for $415 and $125 I can't use my cashback. Anyway that's my rant guess I've been spoiled by the ease of Chase Amazon and didn't realize how tricky Amex would be. Not sure if I should just sock drawer this card or transfer the limit to another card and close it.
