I was at a friends place in a nearby town and got an order from Fry's (grocery store) where the guy charged me for 5 things he didn't deliver (about $30). I made a complaint (1* review, support ticket) and changed his tip to $0.01 because I couldn't set it to 0.

The next day I had 6 charges from 2 Fry's in the area of where I was the day before, totalling about $550 at stores I had never been to (and did not appear as instacart charges like they normally would). My bank gave me a fraud warning when they tried to use an atm. I still had the card in my possession. I reported it to Instacart and never got a response. My bank was able to reverse the charges as fraud though, fortunately.

So I don't know how, but at least 1 rogue instacart delivery people was able to get my atm card information and misuse it. If not, the coincidence that accounts for all the evidence is astronomical.
