As the authors points out, there are tons of clever, devious criminals out there, just waiting to separate us from our money.... Preventing Credit Card Fraud [is] a useful book-albeit a little bit scary. The authors write well, and the book is easy to follow. There are lots of summary pages and conclusions to help reinforce the main points. I confess I am not devious enough to know about all these scams. I appreciate the author exposing them, so we can take precautions. * BASSOCANTOR REVIEWS * Deftly organized into two major sections (Protecting Yourself as a Consumer or Client; Protecting Yourself as a Merchant or Service Provider), Preventing Credit Card Fraud is as impressively informed and informative as it is practical, pragmatic, sensible, timely, constructive, and do-it-yourself applicable for non-specialist general readers seeking to protect themselves and their businesses from credit card fraud.
