:fingerscrossed: hasn't happened to me yet

But, there is forever another local story about someone putting a skimmer on an ATM or gas pump, or some starbucks employee found running someone's card the day after they got a latte at drive-thru...

They say if you enter your PIN, to cover the keys with your other hand, so if there's a camera on it, they can't pick up your number. I'm not only covering it, I'm practically doing sleight of hand. Did I hit the "7" or didn't I? Did I just use the thumb on my cover hand, or was that misdirection? You can't record the beep motherfuckers!

Is it possible to get, like, a visa gift card, not connected to the rest of one's life, and use that for the little daily transactions, and just put more money on it every month or two?
