Leak detection

Lululemon $146.00 on the wrong card — charged to Chase Sapphire Preferred (...8690) on 8/12, but the Amex Platinum lululemon credit (~$75/season) only triggers when the purchase is made on the Platinum Card. This purchase won't earn that credit. Worth confirming the terms, but likely a missed benefit — no fix possible after the fact, just a heads-up for next time.

Everything else this window (8/6–8/13) is routine: Anthropic $137.90 (8/11, within the known 20–200 usage-based range), Amazon.com charges ($11.97, $26.11, $26.21 pending) matching ordinary shopping, small restaurant/coffee charges (Inday $4.36, Bareburger $4.36, Earthbar $12.95), and normal credit-card payment activity between checking/Amex/Chase.

Dedupe — already alerted, no repeat notification: Intelius $38.43 (8/11, escalation from the 8/5 trial) and 1-800 Contacts settling at $387.95 (8/8, matches the earlier pending charge).

Still-open single-occurrence watches with no confirmed recurrence: Preply $105.45, Strava $43.54, Superset $20.00, JetBrains $11.87, Volo Sports $111.53, Alma $139.90, Chelsea Skin & Laser $202.20, Sugaring NYC $43.05, Amazon US Prime $8.15.

Two items from earlier runs still need your input: the Fidelity autoinvest transfer that jumped from $300/wk to a single $600 on 8/1 (no new transfer since), and the Intelius $38.43 charge (8/11) — confirm if recognized or cancel/dispute.
