That seems rather fast to have been leaked from PSA. Typically cards are stolen by the thousands, batched up and sold online. This takes days not minutes. Its possible your card info was compromised elsewhere and the timing was just bad.
Edit: Can always use privacy.com to get a randomly generated card number so that if it is compromised your actual card is safe.
I have bought from them a couple of times, and I think that's where my card gets compromised, but they seem to be the only ones with the things I am looking for too. I am going to check out privacy.com for any upcoming purchases. Thanks for posting that.
How annoying. I'm sorry you had to deal with this.
I'll steer clear of this outfit. If they have trouble like this your card info might be compromised. I use my credit card or privacy.com if I'm ordering from sketchy or new places.
To echo this, each privacy.com card works only at the merchant where you created the card. If a card is attempted to be charged at a different merchant, privacy.com alerts the owner and denies the charge.
So, OP has a card for every merchant he shops at online. The only cards that have been compromised are those that were used at the Georgia Gun Store.
It's a pretty open and shut case, smalls.
Situation resolved amicably.
I have two guesses as to what the true hold up was.
A) I've recently begun using Private Internet Access, and when I placed the order for delivery to an Indiana address, it should have looked like I was coming to them from an IP address in Georgia. (US, not former Soviet republic). If their web order form logs such things, that mismatch could have been enough to kick the order back a bit.
B) When I filled out the order from Firefox, it auto-filled the same data for my address that I fill in everywhere, but CFS's web order form kicked that back immediately for address validation. It essentially was trying to normalize all of the addresses that their shipping department has to deal with, which is entirely fair. I even clicked [Use Validated Address].
However, their complaint was that their system was having a hard time confirming that my address, to which I have all manner of things delivered all the time, was a "deliverable address". Now, again, I live spitting distance from Mordor, uh, I mean Illinois, so I can understand their concern about straw purchases, even of millable receiver blanks, from jurisdictions they just don't want to deal with. Hell, I don't want to deal with Illinois and will move away from the border as soon as possible.
Still, for shipping address validation, to just flat out request my driver's license that contains a lot more info than my address put my paranoia nerves on edge. Either way, I understand their paranoia. I hope they can understand mine.
My order's been sent to shipping for processing, though, and I didn't have to scan my DL to e-mail it to them, so all's well. I'll prolly still pop for two more just because they're so cheap. So, literally, would buy again.

It's limited to 4 per Amazon account, maybe 4 per day. You don't need prime to get free shipping.
I also got 500 of those about a week ago ? Last time they had them on sale. Did yours also arrive with some kind of black, sticky residue at the bottom ? Like tar, or some kind of seal Speer may use on their ammo ?
I dry tumbled then, no dice. Ended cleaning each and every one of the 500 using an old cotton shirt after letting each one marinate for a bit on https://www.amazon.com/Hornady-99901-Cleaner-Aerosol-DynaGlide/dp/B007TNXGMK
Didn't use paint thinner or anything like that because I didn't want to have to tumble them again, and then having to remove media from the hollow point, etc etc etc
Sounds like you are using a solvent (Cleaner). Go with the tried and true its cheap and it works the military uses it (CLP) https://www.amazon.com/Break-Free-Cleaner-Lubricant-Preservative-Squeeze/dp/B0050GW7KU/ref=sr_1_3?s=sporting-goods&ie=UTF8&qid=1513730371&sr=1-3&keywords=clp
