I worked for a major bank in the fraud department. Always keep on eye on any transaction. (You can have alerts sent to you when you use your card.) Remember-, any fraud suspected, call immediately to have the card shut down… then file a claim for reimbursement. Note: You can LOCK these cards and unlock them to use them…then lock them again. Many people don’t realize you can do that. It’s a pain, but in the app on your phone, lock the card - when you go to use it, unlock it, then lock it again. Better than buying silly foil to cover cards. LOL. Fraudsters are very creative in finding ways to steal, shame they are not so creative in finding a job.
