Chip-enabled bank cards such as Debit cards and Credit cards (in Vietnam, commonly familiar under brands like Visa, Mastercard...) easily become targets for fraudulent schemes. Users need to be particularly vigilant whenever making payments. You should not let your card leave your control or hand it to someone else to hold, because in a very short time, criminals can peel off and swap the chip, create counterfeit cards, and perform unauthorized transactions to appropriate assets.

Bkav Cybersecurity experts advise users:

• Always keep cards under your control and never let them out of sight during payment.

• Frequently check transaction histories to promptly detect unusual signs.

• Lock cards and contact the bank immediately if you detect signs of card tampering or unauthorized transactions.
