Top 3 Reasons Why You Shouldn’t Hold Your ATM Card In Your Hand While On Queue

We must really be living in a jet-age
because if you might wanna know,
even with you just standing on the
ATM users queue waiting for your
turn (with your ATM card in your
hand, someone behind you might just
be paying for some bills with your
hard earned cash.
So don’t be surprised if it gets to
your turn and you can’t find any
cash in your account again.
Yea…that’s how technology has
evolved.
So might wanna see my top 3
reasons why you should neither give
someone you card to withdraw for
you nor hold your ATM card in your
hand while on the queue.
NOTE: there are many but I just
culled my top 3, may differ from
yours.
1. Online Shopping: Without your ATM
card PIN, one can still pay for goods
online with your card, all that’s
needed is your card’s:
»Serial number (the 15 or 16 digits
in front if your card)
»Expiry date (just below the serial
no.)
»Security digit (can be found at the
back of your card, usually 3 digits )
2. Clone Cards: Payoneer master card
owners always fall victim to clone
cards. If anybody get hold of your
card, they can easily get all the
details of the card and clone it
exactly. The cloned cards can then be
used to withdraw your money from
any part of the world.
Payonneer might just not be the only
victims but they are very common.
3. Payment of Bills From Scam Jobs or
Websites: If you give your card to
somebody that is knowledgeable
about Internet stuff, he can easily
use your card details to sign up on
websites like domain registrar,
website hosting or some tutorial
website that involves subscription.
These websites will keep on sucking
the hell out of your money monthly
without your knowledge.
To avoid falling victim of any of
these 3 and other dangers, don’t give
somebody else your ATM card for
anything and keep your card in you
purse or wallet while on the ATM
queue.
