One late night I opted to sign up to NewsDemon and abNZB to dabble into Usenet and done used my personal CC to authorize the payments, how screwed am I?

I obviously don’t intend to renew the services with this oversight, likely going to use prepaid visas from now on however, I have an itch that this will bite me in the ass.

    I have never had a suspicious transaction, because the way payments work here (NL) they always need to be authorised, and recurring payments require a different authorisation that you can of course always cancel. You can’t just take money by knowing the card number and cvv (which we also don’t have (yet)).
