Credit card cloning fraud – sometimes known as card skimming – is a type of credit card theft in which a fraudster creates a copy of a legitimate user’s credit card. A number of financial institutions, including banks have in the past reported cases of card cloning prompting them to upgrade their security systems to avoid loss of money. In some cases, card cloners contact the victims pretending to be representatives of financial institutions. They request pin numbers and ask victims to confirm through SMSs on their cellphones. They will then withdraw the money from the victims’ accounts. Cloning doesn’t need to be physically done anymore, either. Contactless technology has made it possible for fraudsters to steal numerous card numbers using remote scanning devices simply by walking down a crowded street with a concealed scanner in their backpack or purse. While there have been efforts across the world to deal with card cloning, stopping card cloning is a constant game of cat-and-mouse in which it’s nearly impossible to get fraudsters to stop cloning cards. Fraudsters are constantly devising new methods to bypass security measures in place. More: Pindula News _If you found this article useful_ *Please support Pindula by forwarding to friends and groups*
