RFID Sleeves for Credit Cards - Stops "Electronic Pickpocketing"
Today's technology is advancing at a rapid pace, and with that comes safety issues. Thieves can now easily access all of your private information without even touching you...!!!
Radio-frequency identification (RFID) is a technology that uses communication via electromagneticwaves to exchange data between a terminal and an electronic tag attached to an object (your card) for the purpose of identification and tracking. They allow us to simply "wave" our credit and debit cards or driver's license in front of a scanner instead of having to "swipe" our cards through a magnetic strip reader.
Thieves can easily purchase RFID scanners online for $150-200 to steal your information right through your purse or wallet. Using off-the-shelf technology, the theives are able to snag the card number, the expiration and issue dates, the cardholder's name and address, and sometimes even their SS# without ever touching the person's credit card.
You could be in your local grocery, at a sporting event, in an elevator at work, at a fast food place....anywhere that a person can pass near you.
