What is Card Clone??
Our Debit/Credit have magnetic strip inside which has all critical information which connect us with bank. So hackers use skimmer device to create a clone of all information from our card which later used to create duplicate cards. Once this duplicate card is ready then they can use it to withdraw amount from bank.
Card Cloning has become common these days. You might be hearing too much news of bank frauds.
But this is not limited to common or local shops it has a wider scope.
As you might be knowing recent case in Great India Palace (GIP). One of the Sales Manager in Burger king has links with Card Cloning Gang. He used to clone all your card details and camera just above payment counter has your PIN code. Nothing else is required. After selling all this info with Gang he used earn too much money.
Not only this but sometimes they used to put this device in ATMs also.
So there is simple message please look around while making any payment and see if you find any suspicious thing in ATM or machine.
