A new, major flaw has been discovered with credit/debit cards containing RFID chips, otherwise known as cards that can be waved and accepted quickly without swiping (pay pass).

REST ASSURED, YOU WILL HAVE NO RISK OF RFID THEFT WITH A FLIPSIDE CARD

These newfangled sensor devices (which may just outline the extent of our laziness), initially designed for speedy checkout, open up a whole new forum for 21st century criminals.  The RFID chip which scans to local card sensors can be picked up by hand held, improvised scanners made at home by real criminals. This really enhances the already prominent issue of credit/debit card theft…I’ve had to change my Bank of America card 3 times!!

Check out the video, consider becoming RFID secure, and be sure to stay tuned to Project Flipside
