A P U B L I C AT I O N O F S H E L L F E D E R A L C R E D I T U N I O N Avoiding Card Fraud Unsigned Credit Cards Credit card thieves could steal your unsigned credit cards and then sign your name on the card in their handwriting. By doing so, they take your name as an alias and they will never have a problem writing and verifying their own signature. Protect your credit cards. When you receive a new or replacement card, sign the back of it as soon as it is activated. Always be sure to store it in a safe place. Cut up expired cards before disposing of them. Loss of Multiple Cards While shopping, you can easily be targeted by pickpockets. If your purse or wallet is stolen, you may lose all your credit cards at one time. Separate your cards. Only carry those cards with you that you plan to use. Also, check your cards from time to time and put aside those cards you don’t use very often. Strange Requests for Your PIN Numbers This form of fraud involves thieves who find creative ways to steal your credit or debit cards when you don’t know about it. For example, sometimes people crawl behind rows in movie theaters and steal pocketbooks while you are watching a movie. When you return home they call you, identify themselves as bank security agents, and ask for your PIN numbers. If you hesitate, they simply ask you to phone their supervisor and give you an accomplice’s phone number to call. By doing so, they are able to get your PIN numbers and use the stolen debit cards to withdraw cash and make purchases. Never reveal your PIN number to anyone. Don’t keep your PIN number in your purse or wallet. Don’t write your PIN on your card either. Memorize it. Have CU questions?
