Victim of identity theft

I was notified by the company who issued me credit card for purchasing such expensive things that I did not make. As far as I remember, I did not gave my account to anyone and did not make any purchases yet. What should I do when it still continues to charge in my credit card? If proven that those purchases were not done by me, will I be excused in paying it?

    The first thing to do is to look for the statement of the merchant and look where the transaction was done since it will be a great helping hand for the company in tracing the one who made those purchases. In order to protect yourself from identity theft, ask for the company's fraud protection services that can help you in knowing about the purchases made using the credit card.

This may be the cheapest car loan refinancing option in Singapore

This may be the cheapest car loan refinancing option in Singapore as the bank allows borrowers to refinance their existing car loans for a very competitive rate of 2.08%, which is much cheaper than most rates for new loans. While the bank also offers loans for the purchase of new and used vehicles, these rates of 2.78% and 2.98% are not the cheapest available. If you are approved to refinance your existing car loan from another bank, you may be able to save thousands of dollars by switching to OCBC due to its refinance rate of 2.08%, which is significantly cheaper than those of most car loans offered by lenders in Singapore.
