Electronic pickpocketing- check your credit cards

A new twist on credit card theft- a scanner that can pick up the details of your credit card... while the card is in your wallet or purse! Watch this 4.5 minute video from WREG TV news in Memphis. Check your credit cards for the RFID symbol.  Thanks to Smithfield, UT police chief Johnny W. McCoy for sharing this link with my colleague Alena Johnson.
