CREDIT CARD THEFT

If you use your credit card  at a store, be aware of your surroundings and what is going on. A new avenue of capturing your credit card # , name and expiration date has surfaced.

While using your credit card at a store, people with the new cell phone/camera are taking
pictures while standing behind you thus capturing all the information needed to use your card.

So,  be aware of your surroundings. Another big issue with credit card theft is a wait person taking your card for payment, going to the register and while gone with your card, running it
through a palm held scanner which captures all your info. off the card.  Patrons are now taking their own cards up and watching the process so that they aren't getting scammed. Pass this on to friends and family so they don't become victims.
