UPDATE: I was able to get in and check my account. In my recent activity there was a week ago a $165 charge from the same vendor. The listing on the website gives a more detailed name:
STRIPE VIA QB*2 8 9 DE WWW.QUICKBOOK CA 94043 US
The listing for the credit gives:
STRIPE VIA QB*2 8 9 DE 877-887-7815 CA 94043 US
Googling that phone number, most of the hits are for people saying they have unauthorized charges on their credit card. A variety of cards are mentioned.
My conclusion: it was a fraudulent charge. Capital One figured out it was fraudulent before it showed up on my statement, and reversed it. Since people with other credit cards are reporting similar unrecognized charges, this suggests some merchant got hacked.
