Best Buy may have had their payment servers hacked.

A lot of people on the Best Buy forums are complaining about strange charges showing up on their Best Buy credit cards and other credit cards used to purchase items on best buy's online store.  It appears to be that someone is purchasing playstation cards with these cards and having the info sent to an email address almost identical to the actual owners email address, the only difference is an extra digit or letter after it.  Best Buy so far is saying that this is a matter to take up with your bank and that they do not believe that their payment servers have been breached.

For now I would say anyone who has purchased anything at best buy's online store keep a close eye on their credit cards for anything suspicious showing up on the transaction history.
