Same thing happened to me. I tried calling Western Union, National Grid, and the FBI but they are clueless. I also told the visa and mastercard security departments multiple times it is probably national grid/speedpay with no luck. If it turns out to be speedpay they should refund their “convenience” fees for the past year.

Just happened to me 3 times in the past year. I also suspected Denver water/Speedpay because I too used several cards with them (all now compromised) but now I’m positive. New paypal debit card, new fraud charges all over europe and baltimore.

I live in the Midwest and somebody in Europe had stolen my card number somehow in October and ran several fraudulent charges. Never found out how they got it but my card was deactivated and reissued with new numbers. 3 months later I got fraudulent charges on the new card from Ireland. The only place I used my card online since the reissue was with a utility bill through western union speedpay. I used before the first card number was stolen as well. No more speedpay for me. I don’t trust their security.

For two months in a row my Amex card has been fraudulently charged. My most recent fraud happened days after I payed my electric bill for national grid Massachusetts. The national grid site uses western union speed pay. My Amex account was a brand new number thanks to the fraud last month. I used it for the first time online to pay my electic bill and 2 days later Amex was contacting me about fraudulent charges. I suspected western union speed pay and now that I found your story through a google search I am even more suspicios. I am so frustrated!!!
