Yup stuff like this is easy to do. You can buy everything you need to do it online for little of nothing.

Would the reader work if you had 2 different cards in your wallet?

Thank god i only have one card that had that symbol, but i still would like to get one of those rfid sleeves for it. But wouldnt the thief need the security code on the back of the card(or front if you have an amex)?

I had a similar thing happen to me.. Person somehow got my cards encryption information while it being in my possession, and created a dummy card and used it 300 miles away. New age thieves.

if a thief targets you specifically, you have zero chance.

However nowadays credit card companies are great at seeing what could be fraud and calling on it.

Oh, and that reader was already on NCIS, so it has been seen nationally.
