Of course, the man may have been just a courier taking the metro for a quick ride, but it is obvious that the wireless terminal is turned on, so he can collect money (up to 100 RON in Romania or 20 Euro abroad) by simply approaching a card in a wallet. An argument in favor of the suspect is that the POS was in plain sight \u2013 a thief would hide it.<br \/>\nA bank official told the Russian publication that stealing money from the card can indeed be simple, but withdrawing it from the bank is more difficult, because any POS terminal is managed by a company, a legal entity, so the perpetrator of the fraud is easily detected.<br \/>\nOn the other hand, getting your money back can be more complicated because some bank contracts stipulate that any transaction made without entering a PIN is the responsibility of the cardholder. Until then, the safest protection is to use a shielded wallet, the so-called RFID-Blocking Wallet. There are high-end, low-end models and DIY tutorials on the market, and the simplest and cheapest is this one:\u00a0 <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1567 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kodingtech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/portofel_anti_RFID.jpg\" alt=\"RFID-proof wallet\" width=\"640\" height=\"241\" \/><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ai un card bancar contactless \u00een portofel ?
