Option A: You used your card to secure a reservation at the Delray Inn hotel and they charged you 1 cents to verify if your card is a real one.

Option B: some motherfucker got a hold of your card # and is checking to see if your card is real, they are using a non descript name like DEL RAY INN, INC to make sure it does not raise red flags from credit card companies who are used to hotel and car rental companies checking credit card in that way.

If it option A, then no worry, if it's option B, YOU'D BETTER GET ON THE PHONE WITH EPASSPORTE BEFORE THEY EMPTY YOUR ACCOUNT
