I wouldn't worry too much. Usually the bank will reverse the charges and investigate. As long as they don't find evidence that the cardholder actually made the charges there is no further action.

It happened to me a year ago. Someone in Dubai was ordering stuff online. Like stock images and plane tickets. I noticed it first while paying bills and alerted the bank. 2 days later they called and asked about more strange charges. Once the shut off the card they did a reversal a few days later and mailed me a new card.

A lot of times it's caused by hackers that steal information from a reputable site and then try to use the card numbers.
