This policy applies to any item purchased with your Visa card or card number including purchases made through the Internet. If you notice fraudulent activity on your card, promptly contact your financial institution to report it. It is important to continually monitor your monthly statement to identify any unauthorized transactions. Your cardholder agreement defines unauthorized transactions.
