Not isolated to Mexico - this happened to me in N. Ca. They went on a shopping spree that got halted at a Walmart when they tried to buy an $1800 TV.
All in all they got about $1500 in goods and cash, but my bank credited me back immediately.
Not long after they all (there was a group of them working together) got arrested and eventually sent to jail.
These thieves attach a scanner to the normal slot where you slide your card, capture your card number and your passcode, and Bingo!
