Sadly there are individuals in this world that would love nothing more than to steal your personal information. All we can do is seek the best security we can find to protect ourselves. Thieves are inventing new ways to scam tons of innocent people out of what we thought was protected. Did you know you can simply walk by someone and they can steal your information right out of your wallet without touching you. These scammers are the ultimate pick-pockets whom never lift a finger. You see they have scamming devices that can pull the credit or debit card information right off your cards. Sounds crazy but unfortunately it can happen but not if you have an RFID Wallet.

Millions of Target Shoppers' Credit Card Data Breached
Heads up to anyone who has shopped at Target stores since Thanksgiving (possibly up until Dec. 15): Your debit and credit card information may now be in the hands of hackers. The Secret Service has confirmed thieves have stolen an unknown number of Target customers' payment information, which could affect millions who have shopped there. Several newspapers and online sites reported the credit card breach occurred the weekend of Black Friday. The thefts took place in Target stores around the country, and may have involved tampering with the machines customers use to swipe cards when making purchases, the newspaper reported. The credit card security breach affected roughly 40,000 card devices at store registers, which could mean that millions of cardholders are at risk. The thieves gained access to data that is stored on the magnetic stripe on the back of the credit and debit cards, according to the newspaper. Online customers were not affected by the breach. Is it safe to shop at Target now? Be your own judge. Be sure to monitor your accounts and report any suspicious activity right away if you have shopped at Target.
Protect Yourself From Online Predators!
SPAM has all sorts of faces. Each one is hiding behind one mask or another seeking only to destroy. This makes many very leery of where on the internet you can go and what link you can click. If you come across the wrong thing, your whole world can crumble in an instant. The internet is a life line for most of us. We communicate with friends and family, work, have fun, the possibilities just keep piling up. On the Internet, your information is very precious and criminals will try to use malware, viruses, phishing, and spam to get it. These methods only get more sophisticated and tricky so even if you have last year’s security solution, it’s not going to cover the newest threats. Why?
