Camera Cell Phone Identity Theft Scam
A privacy expert (I’d tell you who, but then I’d have to kill you) just emailed me this:
Keep a watch out for people standing near you in the checkout line at retail stores, restaurants, grocery stores, etc. who have a camera cell phone in hand. With the camera cell phones, they can take a picture of your credit card, which gives them your name, number and expiration date. CBS reported this type of identification theft is one of the fastest growing scams today.
As if we didn’t have enough to worry about. It just goes to show, it’s always somethin’.
