This CUbit is a bit different. It’s meant to be heard, rather than read. Why? Because why not?
Here’s a primer: Card fraud. Up close and personal. With a topping of, “not my department”.

PS – I maintain card security like a fiend. I avoid letting the card go out of my sight (as at restaurants), use the card only at EMV (chip) terminals, and make most of my purchases using Apple Pay. I won’t use gas pump card swipes (I get branded gift cards instead). For online purchases, I create one-time use numbers for merchants I don’t trust (essentially, if they’re not Apple or Amazon). All my accounts use unique and complex passwords with two-step verification where available. If my information can get stolen (still don’t know how), anyone’s can. It’s why I support merchant security standards and encourage use of tokenized payment systems.
