YES!! It was stored at Amazon and ONLY at Amazon. I haven't transmitted it in YEARS, maybe five or more.

I don't carry it with me. I never used it at Mcdonald's, I never use credit cards of any kind at a public network. I can't think of the last time I even used a public network. It is possible I haven't done that in years. The bank knows it was Amazon and eventually, after penetrating many layer of customer service and security--Amazon admits that it was Amazon. It just takes time to sort these things out. I don't suspect my devices at all. The KF is the only "device" I use except for my Mac. The numbers were stored at Amazon, not on the Kindle and weren't transmitted. It is highly unlikely that I have any suspicious software on the Mac. I know it is becoming more common but it remains unlikey. Good Lord, you folks wouldn't believe you were on fire if your shoes were burning and your a** was catching.
