Lock your credit AND debit cards when you are not using them. There were two attempts on my accounts.

[3Hotdogs]

The first was yesterday and was on my B.o.A. credit card. The card is locked to the attempt went nowhere. I got emails from B.o.A. saying the purchases were turned down because the card was locked. Then the email told me to unlock the card if I wanted to make the purchase.

The second was today and was on my B.o.A. debit card. Same thing. Locked, so no purchase.


Yes, it's a pain-in-the-ass to unlock and relock the card when you want to use it......

4. Credit card data breaches have been happening long before Doge

There was a massive data breach in 2013. I wasn't on the receiving end but I've never forgot about it.
