$2k in 4 hours OR this is Discover Card calling

We went on a bit of shopping spree today. First out to Lowes to purchase a washer, dryer & fridge (about \$1400 there). Then to Sears & OSH for 11 gallons of interior paint (including primer), plus a lawnmower (nearly another \$400). So we're home for less than an hour, the phone rings, and its DiscoverCard calling. They're freaking out because there's been "unusually high activity on the account". This is their way of saying, "OMG! we don't want to get stuck holding the bag for this \$\$\$\$ if its due to fraud".
