💳 Could you spot a card skimmer?

Card skimmers can be difficult to notice, but a few quick habits can help protect your card information:

👀 Look before you insert. Check the card reader for anything loose, crooked, or unusual.

✋ Give it a wiggle. If the reader moves or doesn't look right, don't use it.

🔢 Cover your PIN. Always shield the keypad with your hand.

📱 Tap when you can. Contactless cards and mobile wallets can help reduce your exposure to traditional skimmers.

🔔 Keep an eye on your account. Turn on transaction alerts and review your account regularly.

A few extra seconds at the card reader can help keep your card information where it belongs: with you. 🔐
