■ Don't carry more credit cards than you need. ■ Check card readers at self-serve gas pumps, ATMs or other machines for obvious card skimmers.■ Don't let your credit card out of your sight for any longer than necessary when paying for items or meals. ■ Check your bank history often. Most banks allow you to check your account online or through apps on smartphones. ■ Take advantage of security measures offered by your bank. For example, some banks allow you to set spending limits that require authorization over certain dollar amounts. ■ Never give anyone the PIN number for your debit card (and don't write it on or near your card).■ Pick a random PIN number rather than obvious numbers like your address or phone number. ■ As soon as you notice your wallet or credit card is missing, cancel all your cards. ■ If your card has been stolen or compromised, secure copies of bank statements to provide to police or federal authorities

We just don't use it here except in very secure circumstances with large companies like Home Depot for example. And then we notify in advance we are going to make a charge at that place and tell them not to approve any others without our say so.

Only takes one quick call on our U.S. line or Skype to Capital One. They've been very good at security for us.
