Credit card fraud is a major concern for businesses and consumers alike. Whether you're swiping IRL or virtually, here are six ways that credit card fraud can happen: 1. Skimming: This involves copying information from the magnetic strip of a credit card, typically using a small device attached to ATMs or point-of-sale terminals. Fraudsters use this copied data to create a counterfeit card.  2. Phishing: Fraudsters send fake emails or text messages that appear to be from legitimate sources, tricking individuals into providing their credit card details. 3. Data breaches: Hackers infiltrate company databases to steal large volumes of credit card information. These breaches often target businesses with inadequate security measures. 4. Account takeover: Cybercriminals gain access to an individual’s account by acquiring login credentials, often through phishing or data breaches, and then use stored credit card information to make unauthorized transactions. 5. Card-not-present (CNP) fraud: This occurs when fraudsters use stolen credit card information to make online or over-the-phone purchases. Since the physical card is not needed, it’s harder to verify the transaction.
