[RP TownTalk] Caution~Discontinue Using Credit/Debt Card At A Gas Pump

[Iris McLaurin-Southall]

Neighbors... my husband and I just discovered fraud on our bank account.
According to our bank, though we still have possession of our credit card,
someone has duplicated it, mostly likely via some equipment (not easily
identified) that can attach to a gas pump and copy the front and back side
of the card.   They say gas stations are not monitoring their gas pumps
throughout the day, therefore, it is easy for persons to attach the
equipment to a gas pump and capture your information.   The solution they
suggest is to only pay inside the station, do not use your card at the pump.
Today, someone used our card to make large purchases in Towson MD at a
Walgreens and Tmobile payment.

 

Please be careful
