Moving About Tips
- Be wary of ‘shoulder-surfers’ – people behind you in queues at the till or at the cash machine trying to see you enter your PIN.
- Be wary of ‘skimming’ – fraudsters who capture your card information by swiping the card on a skimmer and storing the information. When you hand over your card to make an in-store purchase or at a restaurant, don’t let it out of your sight.
- Don’t use the cash machine if you think it’s been tampered with, and report your suspicions to the bank.
- Use different PIN’s for each card and change the PINs regularly.
- Keep your wallet, purse, mobile phone, organiser, house keys (any personal effects) out of sight and reach.
