We have a customer who had a fraud alert on her card for one transaction. She told the fraud center that it was not fraud. Her card was reopened. Now she turned in a dispute for 2 transactions (one is the same she said was not fraud, the other is from the same place) claiming that these are fraud. Do we file the dispute for both? Do we deny both because she said the first one wasn't fraud?
