AnthonyMy debit card's "fraud protection":<br><br>1. Regularly flags payments to subscription services as potential fraud even though I've used them for years, paying with the same debit card, and in spite of the fact that I've indicated many times that I trust these services; and<br>2. Has never identified a real instance of fraud<br><br>Whatever they're doing to detect potential fraud, it has a large false positive rate and does not seem adaptive (at least in my case). It's especially odd to me that this bank asks if I've authorized transactions it flagged as potentially fraudulent, I indicate no, this is not fraud, and yet the system continues to flag transactions with the same vendor as potentially fraudulent. I'm giving it a reinforcement signal that couldn't be more clear!<br><br>Edit: this post is not a request for banking or financial advice, nor an invitation to critique my choices. I'm venting about what seems to be a poor algorithm and if you have any comments or insights into that particular topic I'm happy to hear them.<br><br><a href="https://buc.ci?t=debitcard" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#DebitCard</a> <a href="https://buc.ci?t=banking" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#banking</a> <a href="https://buc.ci?t=fraud" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#fraud</a> <a href="https://buc.ci?t=fraudprotection" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#FraudProtection</a> <a href="https://buc.ci?t=frauddetection" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#FraudDetection</a> <a href="https://buc.ci?t=cybersecurity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#cybersecurity</a> <a href="https://buc.ci?t=infosec" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#InfoSec</a><br>

Harry Sintonen<p>Linus Sebastian claimed in July 7, 2023 WAN Show (at 1:58:47) that you could destroy the chip on the "tap to pay" credit/debit card and the pin payment would still work. His reasoning behind the claim is that they'd be separate chips. This is incorrect - destroying the chip on the card will definitely nuke the pin payment method as well.</p><p>There's a way to destroy the NFC functionality, and it can be done by disconnecting the NFC antenna (the concentric wire loops leading to the chip). Some banks also allow you to disable the tap to pay functionality from the online banking app, definitely less risky way to do it. It should be also noted that cashiers may refuse to accept a card that has physical damage on it.</p><p><a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/nfc" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>nfc</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/taptopay" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>taptopay</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/debitcard" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>debitcard</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/creditcard" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>creditcard</span></a></p>
