I can't remember: are you outside the US? In the US, banks almost all
offer the option of text or email alerts when your credit card or
checking or savings is debited(*) by more than an amount you select.
This is helpful not just for early warning of fraudulent charges, but
also for the cases you mention where a legitimate charge might not make
it into your accounting records.
(*) It bears repeating: a debit on the bank's books is a credit on the
customer's books, and vice versa.
