It seems incongruous that you replied to my online complaint with a paper letter, which contained this completely inaccurate interpretation of my complaint:
"... it appears from your correspondence that you purchased merchandise with a credit card".
NO, I did not even attempt to purchase anything. My credit card number was stolen and used with hours by the criminal to purchase tickets online. Had some law enforcement entity acted promptly, the criminal could easily have been tracked down.
You targeted the online ticket selling company, Seatgeek, but the real culprit was the Mobile gas station company where my credit card number was stolen. Seatgeek had possible complicity but more likely just bad procedures in that Seatgeek did not ask the criminal for an expiration date or security number, which is on the back of the credit card. The criminal did not have the physical card, only the credit card number.
