For Christ sakes he is a 74 year old man and they let him buy $6000 in Sephoria gift certificates. That a lot of ####ing eyeliner.

In most cases, credit card companies have no idea what items you're buying, only the place of business. But I agree if he had an unusual number of transactions at one store in a short period of time it seems like something they could at least call him about and ask a few questions to clarify what he's doing.
