Discover is 7. Amex is either 6 or 8

The first four digits will identify the bank that the card is drawn on. 
Your bank ought to be able to identify that for you.  Or post the first 
four digits on the cards here and someone with a card on the same bank can 
probably tell you what bank it is drawn on.

Also,there is an FBI/FTC internet fraud reporting web site.  report it 
there, with the appropriate card numbers.
