Electronic Pickpocketing

So you know. Just in time for the gifting season.

It's called electronic pickpocketing and security expert Walt Augustinowicz says relatively new technology designed to make your purchases more convenient could put your credit card number at risk.

Mr. Nag's credit card company called him up last week to tell him his credit card had been fraudulently used to purchase $1000 worth of goods at Walmart. I don't know what hurt worse, the fact that his card had been compromised or that people might think he shops at Walmart.
