[QUOTE="TairikuOkami, post: 891785, member: 61892"] Also Extensions - not necessarily fake, simply taking advantage of the user - in addition to that, storing card in the browser, making it more vulnerable. [URL unfurl="true"]https://latesthackingnews.com/2020/06/24/over-100-malicious-google-chrome-extensions-found-spying-on-users/[/URL] On top of that, contactless card can be stolen anytime anywhere. I have recently found out, you can buy RFID blocking card, instead of an expensive wallet. [MEDIA=youtube]Z1Sk0WjlELg[/MEDIA] But there are way simpler ways, like a cheap camera installed on a lamp near the POS terminal or in a shop. When you handle your card, you swing it around several times making all details visible. I pay by card trying to keep it covered by hand and I have also scratched out my CVV number. Indeed, most banks cover an attempted card misuse, if reported within 48 hours. But identity protection covers legal obligations, way more expensive. I am lucky to pay only $1 per month and I am protected up to $2500 per every reported incident, where any of my personal info would be falsely used. It can take months to recover from an identity theft, but a permanent record might stay, so the person might have a hard time getting a loan or a job. [MEDIA=youtube]JQMH5TqW9Cg[/MEDIA] [/QUOTE]
