Preventing Credit Card Fraud
|
|
|
Credit card fraud is one of the most common scams in the world. There are several ways to prevent this.
1. Always sign your cards, or write “See I.D” on them; do it as soon as soon as possible.
2. Keep a careful record of your accounts: void incorrect receipts, destroy carbons, save receipts to compare with billing statements, open bills promptly and reconcile accounts monthly.
3. Don’t give out your account number over the phone unless you're making the call to a company you know is reputable; check it out with your local consumer protection office or Better Business Bureau.
4. Do not lend your credit card(s) to anyone.
5. Collect your credit card receipts and keep them secure
6. Never sign a blank receipt, and always draw a line through any blank spaces above the total.
7. Keep your cards separate from your wallet to thwart would-be pickpockets. |
