Twitter users should not tweet pictures of their debit cards, for scammers might get chance enough to prove them modern day fools.
“Please quit posting pictures of your debit cards, people,” tweets @NeedADebitCard, a six-week-old Twitter account with 2,704 followers.
The Consumers’ Union advocacy group, however, says that a scammer can hardly get any advantage without having the three-digit CVV code embossed on the back side of a debit card.
“But that doesn’t make posting images of your cards online is at all safe, or even close to being a good idea,” it wrote on its Consumerist.com blog. “Those who have breached themselves should probably get new cards. And not snap pictures of them, this time,” added the group.
