Saw an ad on TV selling wallet/credit card protectors from thieves scanning them, so I had to look into this for this was news to me .It's very real and I wanted to warn people.. Please protect yourself from ID theft! This is all done electronically, and imo, this RFID tech is for the birds!


Contactless credit card skimming is a real danger. This is a news report where Identity Stronghold shows how easy it is to scan or skim all credit card data without touching you. The RFID chips make the card vulnerable


The vid will show you how this thieiving is done. Be aware folks!

this was known before rfid's were made into the public sector ....

anything electronic can be hacked one way or another ....

Taking into account the fact that there are sooo many ways & tricks to separate you from your electronic hard earned money, I can only offer one advice: Cash Rules, Man !
Never trust that plasticky piece of junk, with or without magnetic strip, chip or RFID. And never ever trust any banks.

the private investigators used by these banks and insurance companies are sometimes more thorough than the feds..

I have been without bank for over a year now, and I wish I would have done it sooner. Living in a small city, it is hard to get certain items without the ability to order over the net, but I found there is still plenty of places that still take money orders. I don't get the appeal of a swipeless card, it's almost like the banks want there customers to get hacked easier.

i hope they do get hacked, they blame it on me for an inside job .. then evidence surfaces that i was innocent then i sue for punitive damages



Then others follow suit

I have a card with that symbol in the UK, it came when I changed my card because it was cloned, I didnt even request the technology on it, turns out you cant get a new card without it...

Awesome.
