Credit Card Safety checks -
• Keep your e-mail address and phone number with your credit card issuer updated.
• Check your credit card statement details carefully and opt for SMS/e-mail alerts
• Transact only through secure websites which have https in their URL address.
• If not required, Keep a low-limit card for online transactions and choose a chip-enabled card
• Register for online transaction passwords such as Verified by Visa or MasterCard Secure Code and avoid using public computers
• In India, according to a provision in credit card contracts the card-issuing company isn't liable for any fraudulent transaction unless the customer files a report immediately
• Skimming or cloning is something to be cautious about, especially when travelling abroad. In this, data in your card's magnetic stripe is recorded when swiped at a machine. This information is then used to make duplicates. It can happen anywhere, at a petrol pump or a restaurant. So make sure the card is swiped in your presence.
