OA bubbas and bubbettes,

Quick heads-up; there have been multiple documented cases of fraudulent credit card charges originating from the food court, restaurants, and CIBO stores at Terminal 5 JFK. JetBlue corporate security has been investigating the issue for at least 6 months, but as yet have been unable to stop the charges. The most recent known case of this fraud occuring was this past Monday, January 30.

If you are commuting in and out of JFK on JetBlue I strongly advise using cash for any food transactions. If you must use a credit card, or have in the recent past, be on the alert for attempts to use your card at Wawa gas stations and for large gift-card purchases. Like many other airports the food court and restaurants are all run by a central vendor, OTG, and the cases of fraud have originated from multiple sources within our terminal.

 

Thanks for the heads up. There was a similar problem coming from the diner style restaurant by gate 40 or so at AA terminal 8. My girlfriend bought lunch and ended up with a 300 dollar charge in Brooklyn the next day. I work for JB I'll let corporate security know, maybe there is a connection.

 

That really upsets pea. Glad he has his Septra DS!

+1. To the tune of $550 about a month ago. BofA took care of it. It was a purchase for a clothes at an outlet store...if that helps

 

Good post...thank you

 

Good thing I'm broke... they'll just get a big fat "DENIED"

 

Wow I am in and out of there weekly , guess I ll need to check ... Thanks for heads up

 

This is the reason I only use cash on trips.

 

The McDonalds at the DAL terminal at LAX got me for a donation to the Africa Relief Fund.

 

Any idea why we haven't heard a word from the Company (JetBlue Corp. Security) on this?
