Credit & Debit Card Scams
The Cornwall Community Police Service would like to remind the public to take extra precautions when shopping. In the past few weeks, we have received reports of stolen debit and credit cards. These thefts have occurred in the parking lots at local shopping centers and grocery stores. A male described as having dark hair and olive skin has been approaching potential victims with a map asking for directions. While the unsuspecting victim is distracted assisting the first male, a second male will steal debit/credit cards from the victim’s purse.
What is debit card fraud?
Debit card fraud happens when a thief “skims” or swipes the information from the magnetic strip on the back of your card to create a duplicate of your card. To steal money from your account, a thief also has to capture your PIN.
Stop it
Your debit card is the key to your account(s) – it’s for your personal use only. Follow these tips to protect your debit cards against fraud and misuse.
- · Keep your card in a safe place and never lend it to anyone. Conducting an Automatic Banking Machine (ABM) or debit transaction requires both your card and your Personal Identification Number (PIN).
- · Protect your PIN – it’s your electronic signature. Don’t write it down – memorize it. Change it periodically.
- · When selecting a PIN, always avoid the obvious: your name, telephone number, date of birth, and address. Make sure your PIN cannot be easily guessed if your debit card is lost or stolen.
- · Never disclose your PIN to anyone. No one from a legitimate financial institution, police service, or business should ask for your PIN.
- · Always conduct your ABM transactions when and where you feel most secure. If you are uncomfortable about using the machine for any reason, do it later or go to another location. If anything seems unusual about the ABM or point of sale terminal, don’t use it – report the situation to police, the merchant or your financial institution.
- · To ensure privacy, use your hand or body as a shield to prevent others from seeing you enter your PIN.
- · After completing a transaction, remember to take your card and your transaction record.
- · Regularly review transaction history online or your monthly bank statements and report anything unusual to your financial institution immediately.
