Has anyone here had the WP-Stagecoach scam done on them?

Yesterday I found that my account was hemmoraging money like a Haemophiliac's first period, and while I wouldn't have noticed usually due to my poor memory when it comes to money, I did this weekend as I didn't use my card over the weekend.

Got to the ATM to get a full statment in the panic and found a WP-Stagecoach debit. A quick call to my bank and found that a number of debits for £22.50 were being processed at that time and that I had two cards on the go, they blocked both the cards and I've been given the number for the fraud dept.

Anyway, long story short. Be careful with your card - I'm usually paranoid about people around me when using it and I've still been stung, in most shops I only use cash for transactions because anyone could use a dodgy chip and pin machine to pull your info.
