Thieves able to steal your credit card information without laying a hand on your wallet
Brand new technology that is putting 140 million people at risk from electronic pick pocketing.
Radio Frequency Identification technology found in the most recently released credit cards from banks allows this to happen. RFID is now found in your passport, debit and credit cards for the benefit of doing things faster, but now it can be used at your loss.
Your loss can easily be made with by criminals using a $100 credit card reader bought online and simple notebook computer program. Credit card information is easy to steal by simply walking past you and your wallet while scanning for RFID transmissions.
With this technology, just walk through a crowd gleaning RFID credit card transmissions and email them to anywhere in the world!
This RFID information has been out and available in your passport and cards since 2006.
Quick solution: buy a credit card sleeve holder designed to block RFID hacking!
