Restaurants & gas stations are the two most likely places to have your ....


account compromised. At restaurants when they take your card to the back, out of your sight, where the number, expire date, etc. can be copied. At gas stations where it is easy to install card readers on the pumps.
If possible, choose restaurants where you pay at a register up front. That way you are always in possession of the card. With gas stations, always tug on the card reader before you insert your card. If there is a bogus scamming attachment if will come off easily. It looks just like the real card reader, it snaps onto it.
