Ditto, me too.
I've had various credit card banks call me several times - sometimes it was my using the card in an unusal way that they checked on, sometimes it was somebody else and they cancelled and sent a new one, at least once they called to say they knew it was somebody else and would send a new card.
A couple of years ago my sister got a call asking about one of her husband's cards. He was in the Middle East and used it. The bank asked her if it was ok, she told them yes, and then asked them what if he had been single and there had been no one home to ask. Oddly, they had no answer. Guess it had never come up.

And, oh yeah. Just last year I was in a long checkout line at Walmart. Full buggy. Put the debit card in the slot and it says,"No, thanks." Several tries, it says "Insufficeint funds," everybody behind me muttering "Deadbeat." Finally use another card.
Get home, call bank. They say some one who said she was my girl friend had called asking about my Visa account, they were suspicious and put a hold on it. That card is the overdraft protection on my checking account so not only was Walmart an embarrassment, but there were overdraft fees on three checks. My apoplexy was relieved only when they made it all whole.
