I found that the same thing applies to ATM cards. I let both my credit card company and my bank (ATM) know where and for how long I'll be away. I rarely use either but you never know and better safe than sorry.

Oh, and I use Travellers cheques when I take "money" with me. I only have some CDN for my return trip home.
