To Catch a Thief

WOW. Looks like Christmas shopping just got a whole lot more risky! I hope you'll take a minute to watch this rather unsettling (borderline shocking) video so you can be forewarned. An ounce of prevention, and all that.

What are these crooks going to come up with next?

Sheesh!

Scary!!! I want to know more about the company that sells sleeves to protect against that!

Great...now I have one more thing to add to my list of things that I'm paranoid of. I want to get a iron lined wallet for Christmas!

Yikes!! Why don't these people use their powers for good instead of such evil?!!

Who are these people, and why don't they use their time to get a real job? Scary!

My husband's debit card info was stolen, and the thieves charged over 800.00 on Thanksgiving day. We caught it (mainly because I KNEW he would never spend 350.00 at Bed, Bath and Beyond tee hee), but it was a real hassle, especially since it happened over a holiday. Our banker told us about these scanners. She said anyone can buy one on E-bay. That's just frightening to me! Kat

Whoa. Who'd have thought? This is truly scary, leaving us all vulnerable. Thanks for putting the word out, Sue.

I think this is what it means in the scriptures about possesions becoming slippery. Good thing I'm already broke!

I saw this on an episode of some NCIS type drama I watch. Was waiting for this to hit the news.

So good to know about.

Just read that foil will keep these scanners from working, so maybe there's no need to spend moola to avoid the problem.

Just when you think life can't get any scarier it does! I'm going to go check all my cards and see if any have that sign on them...if so, maybe I will leave those at home.
