Subscribe: TuneIn | RSS

In this episode, we talk about identity theft and credit card fraud. With almost $12 billion a year in U.S. credit card theft, this is a big topic for the world we live in. In this Sofa King Podcast, we cover scams that can get your data stolen, how your data is being used by thieves, and the techniques for someone else to illegally use your credit card or identity to suit their own purposes.

Some of the specific topics we include in our discussion are how credit card theft works, how identify thieves steal your information, ATM skimmers, corrupt shredding companies, Wi-Fi scams, and massive data breaches. You will be a bit more paranoid about how and where you shop by the time you’re done with this one!
