Doubt : Theft - debit card used - after using at Apple Store ?

[x720]

If somebody indeed were to steal his details, I doubt it that they'd use it for such petty purchases.

 

[experience]

Assumptions everywhere.That purchase maybe a trick to check if his CC is valid or not.

True...But what triggered ICICI... surely not an app purchase, even if you say he accidently clicked yes to a purchase.

Not true, if debit card, right?

and here i thought icici required transaction password on every transaction through the debit card. i could be wrong though. it has been a very long time since i used my icici debit card for anything.

^Yes. No idea about international transactions

 

[experience]

you just need the card no., expiry and the VBV code.

 

[mhsabir]

That's what, even I said. But that may be needed if you use verified by visa or something. Otherwise, I don't think debit cards need transaction password as used in netbanking

VBV pass is mandatory by RBI as from 2k11 i guess.

i really had no idea u could use debit card for international transactions

VBV pass is mandatory by RBI as per 2k11 i guess.

actually in my experience... international payment gateways do not ask for it. i have a mastercard and payment gateways from cloudflare, paypal, GoDaddy, hover, google wallet have never asked me the MasterCard SecureCode.
