The strange thing about this story is why didn't the bank send SMS messages for the purchases, this should be the default.

Mine only does for purchases over a certain amount, and then when it does send the text it is only that a purchase was made, not how much or where’s the purchase was made.

This could have easily be prevented if they did it for all amounts and enabled OTP code.
