Credit cards are convenient, but they can make you an easy target for financial fraud too. Each tap, card swipe, or online transaction is attached to a slight but genuine potential for fraud. From data thefts to links that lead to phishing scams, thieves are always finding fresh methods to pilfer details. Keeping your card safe is never just about money — it is also keeping your reputation and your identity safe.

Keep a lookout for suspicious texts

Scammers nearly always pretend to be your card company/bank, with bogus alerts/reward notices that demand you provide them with personal info. Real banks never request card numbers, OTPs, PINs over calls/messages. Always verify sender's ID and call your bank when suspicious.

Use secured networks while making transactions

Do not access public
