Point of thread is to reemphasize the need to guard access to your card.
How many times have you handed your credit card to a waiter to pay your bill? How many times have you ordered something by mail by credit card , given card number and then provided the sacred 3 digit number on back? These actions put you at risk. Probably far worse if you do the same with your debit card.
Consider all of our recent immigrants that are simply allowed entry with no background checks and then given work permits.
Put it together and use caution. Not saying that all immigrants are responsible, but we are surely increasing the odds.

Recent immigrants? More concern for the bad guys in Nigeria.
