Alarming for stolen credit cards is useful. If the amount stolen is higher than 1,000 yuan, after calling the police, the police will treat it as a theft case and file a case in accordance with the law. Only after the case is filed will it be possible to help the victim recover the loss. If the criteria for filing a case are not met, the victim can get a receipt from the police station. After submitting the receipt to the bank, he can file a complaint with the bank to recover the stolen amount. Therefore, it is useful to report a stolen credit card.
