My wife and I keep getting our debit cards stolen online. We notice the charges and are able to dispute them and cancel our cards, but it sure is annoying.

We don't put our card information on suspicious websites. They're on well known websites like amazon and Facebook.

We ran out emails through a data breach checker and it found nothing.

I don't think there's any malware on our devices.

Any idea what could be happening and how to prevent it?

It depends where you live, but have you considered using transfers instead of card?

I use Privacy for everything. I can easily cancel and dispute cards and not have to go through the new card song and dance.
