WAYS THAT CREDIT CARDS CAN LOSE YOUR CREDIT

Credit card holders are being ripped off now more than ever. A little education and some sound judgment will protect your card and your credit.

Never give your credit card number over the telephone unless you initiated the call or purchase. One of the more prevalent scams involves calling a cardholder and posing as the credit card company asking to verify your card number. Obviously, your card issuer knows your card number but a surprising number of people fall for this ruse.

The internet can be fruitful for unscrupulous people who want your credit card number.
