Re: Credit card fraud
Unfortunately, there are those who take advantage of others. Here are some of the most commonly used methods. Be diligent and be aware of all surroundings and transactions
Cell Phone Camera Scam
While paying for a purchase with your card, someone INCLUDING SERVER OR CLERK, could be using their cell phone to take a
picture of your card number, expiration date and name
Card Switch
After making a purchase, a wrong card is intentionally returned to you. your card has been replaced with a
cancelled or declined card, and if unnoticed at the time of the transaction, the fraudster can go on a
shopping spree with your card. Always check your card when given back to you. If you don't report a lost
or stolen card, you are responsible for it.
Restaurant and Store Skimming
Small, pocketable skimming devices, which can be used by restaurant servers and store cashiers
Try NOT to let your card out of your sight
