The most common way criminals get credit card information is a phishing scam including fake emails sent by credit card companies. Normally, this fake e-mail stated that there was an error in the account, or that someone who is not authorized accessed it, so it needs attention.
As long as you know what you are looking for, it is not difficult to find fake emails. In most cases, the most obvious tip is the fact that I do not have a credit card for the company that sent the e-mail. For others, the link keeps fake e-mails away. Whenever you receive an email from a credit card you need to place the mouse on the link, "right click" the link with the mouse and select "watch source". If the link is actually false, the website address will be other than the credit card company.
Criminals do not want to see the source of their website as you want them to click the link before you see other things. Clicking the link will usually arrive at the website, which is an accurate copy of the credit card website. Fake sites usually include everything done by real sites, including logos and banners. Even if you are the most amateur of credit card criminals, you can create such a web page very easily.
Your people who became victims of this fraud probably realized what you did a bit late. Entering credit card information will precisely do what the criminal wanted, and will violate credit card fraud and theft of personal information. When a criminal acquires your social security number and credit card information, he is more likely to steal your money, activate your account, and use that information to continue shopping.
If you receive such a mail, please delete it. Even if you click on a fake website to investigate, you may have more harm than good. Even if you do not enter all the information, the computer may be infected with viruses and spyware just by clicking the link. To avoid this, please never click on a link that seems to be a fake credit card company website.
If you protect and protect your credit card information, you do not have to worry about anything. It is very important because you do not want your personal information to fall into the wrong hand. As long as you keep it, do not worry. Always be vigilant because you always have criminals. Criminals need your personal information and your credit card number - it is up to you not to get it. A criminal does something to get what he wants. It is very important to protect ourselves recently.
