  • Anyone suggest an RFID wallet. Tried and tested.

    Mixed reviews online about them not working and reviews saying best in the world.

    Secretary in work uses her husbands card, with consent, while he's away (Pilot) and neither of them had really been checking the statements. As the card is contactless and in her handbag, she's been tapped 7 times in the last 2 months for £20/per hit.

  • "tapped 7 times in the last 2 months for £20/per hit"

    That's what I told my wife. Bank check determined it was all spent on crisp at the shop over the road from my work. What a coincidence?! (seriously though I didn't realise this sort of thing happened - is it mainly to people with wallets/purses in bags?)

  • I'm surprised this can happen. Is she suggesting someone with an illicit card reader is tapping her card without her say-so to nick money? If so, that's pretty much the easiest thing ever for her bank to get the money back and get the reader and whoever has the account for the reader blacklisted/nicked.
