I use tap pay as much as possible
I thought tap wasn’t that good but I guess I know now
But I do my best to use cash much as possible

Things that kings use... Cash is king.. There's places you can't eat , purchase items, or receive services without it, especially in certain places in nyc... Cash>>>> everything else

Damn good to be aware

The U.S. Secret Service has a team of experts trained to find skimming devices. Many of these devices are now so advanced, officials said, that the old shake of the credit card terminal at the pump may not even pick them up.

The idea for the operation came up about 18 months ago.
“We were looking at transnational organized crime groups and the way that they’re impacting the United States, specifically, are vulnerable communities and stealing benefits from them,” Assistant Special Agent in Charge for the US Secret Service Michael Peck said. “As we progressed and looked at proactive means to take on this challenge, one of our analysts said we need to target skimming and out of a traditional means of it.”…
