    Too bad those thieving monsters don't use their technological intelligence for GOOD!

    An easier way to deal with this problem is to use regular credit cards - the ones that have to be 'swiped' through a reader. The problem cards are only 'read' like WiFi computers and not swiped.

    This sounds a better way to go. I read some feedback on those wallets and it was not good.
    A scrap of Alfoil cost next to nothing.
