More on electronic pickpockets
I’ve been warning about the RFID cards since I first heard about them. Here is more proof that they’re dangerous. A television reporter goes out on the street and accesses credit and debit card information while the victim’s cards are still in their pockets or purses.
Pay attention please folks. These things are dangerous to your finances but the banks are insisting on putting them out there for all of you. And while they are doing it, they lie about how insecure they really are. And they say that even if thieves could read the cards, they couldn’t do anything with the information. Again, it’s been proven to be a flat out lie.
There are shielding sleeves and wallets available at low prices. I urge you to invest, yes, it’s an investment, in one. I also encourage you to look at your credit card statements on line at least weekly.
Take a look at your cards. If any of them have a similar logo, don’t leave home with it, at least not without a protective sleeve
