Hi, to everyone. Today I watched a show on TV and which I did not realize that everytime you swipe your bank card or credit card the information is stored on these machines. Every night the store managers or employees after closing are suppose to wipe the hard drive clean in this way all the information cant be stolen. I just wanted to let you know considering some don't do this. A thief can come in and steal the hard drive and there goes all our personal information. I just want everyone to be aware of this when using your cards. I did not know this and I'm so glad I saw that show. I think I will be using more cash. I went to a corner store and asked them if they wipe the hard drive clean and they told me yes. Well at least I know at that corner store I am safe on using the interac.
Just would like to take the time to add today is Saturday 27 2010
I just heard on the news that they caught a huge ring of interact and credit card fraud ring.
Hurray
