| This holiday shopping season, we are urging shoppers to be extra careful, but there's a simple solution... A gang of high-tech credit card thieves has been targeting unsuspecting individuals over the past weeks. Multiple victims have come forward, some reporting over 20 unauthorized purchases charged to their credit cards. These criminals are using a homemade device called an RFID Skimmer to capture data from nearby credit cards. These sophisticated devices work by exploiting a flaw in the RFID chips embedded in most credit cards, allowing card data to be read and captured "through the air". Victims do not even know their card information has been captured until unauthorized charges appear on statements. Security experts are advising everyone to take steps to protect themselves from these nefarious individuals, especially during the holiday shopping season. The simplest and most affordable protection is an RFID blocking card that is carried in your wallet next to credit cards. These special cards—such as Wallet Defender—are the exact size of a credit card and prevent RFID signals from reading personal card data. |
