Many people find it easy and convenient to use credit cards and ATM or debit cards. The Electronic Fund Transfer Act (EFTA) and the Fair Credit Billing Act (FCBA) offer procedures for you to use if your cards are lost or stolen.
How To Protect Your Debit and Credit Cards
The best protections against card fraud are to know where your cards are at all times and to keep them secure. For protection of ATM and debit cards that involve a Personal Identification Number (PIN), keep your PIN a secret. Don’t use your address, birth date, phone or Social Security number as the PIN and do memorize the number. Become familiar with the Fair Credit Billing Act (FCBA) and the Electronic Funds Transfer Act and know what your liability is.
