RFID Vault Blocking Sleeves Continue to Gain Increasing Interest Among Amazon Customers

(Newswire.net — May 16, 2017) Tallahassee, FL — Today, fraudsters such as identity thieves are scattered in public places. While consumers are thought to be almost always susceptible to these crooks, there are products believed to be effective in warding off these criminals.

RFID Vault blocking sleeves continue to gain increasing interest among Amazon customers. Many customers believe these sleeves have been extremely helpful in keeping their credit and debit cards as well as other documents safe from fraudsters.

According to Kate Rutherford, RFID Vault media representative, these RFID sleeves work by keeping passports, credit cards, driver’s licenses, and medical ID cards from unauthorized access.

When these sleeves are used, consumers would be able to dine at restaurants, travel to and from work, and stay in public places with worrying about becoming identity theft victims. These sleeves come in 12 packs that can easily fit in purses, pockets, and wallets.

Banks, governments, and businesses prefer to use Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) chips for identity information verification. Cards that are equipped with this technology are usually RFID scanned in stores, travel terminals, and kiosks.

This product is made of a lightweight material that works by preventing RFID skimming devices from reading card information. These devices are widely available nowadays, and are not just easy to use but also inexpensive.

Anyone can pretty much become an identity thief due to the wide availability and easy usability of these skimming devices. This is why it is extremely important for consumers to protect themselves from these thieves that can strike anytime and anywhere in public places.

Rutherford added that the card can be easily slipped in and out of the sleeves. Consumers do not even need to do cut or trim them as the sleeves have a secure fit feature.

These blocking sleeves work by blocking the signals from RFID scanners, which are often used by thieves. These skimming devices activate the encoded card information on the RFID chips but are prevented in doing so with the use of the sleeves.

During legitimate business transactions, the scanner reads the information from the card for identification or payment purposes.

However, in cases of identity theft, fraudsters do not even have to get in physical contact with the victim and the cards. Just by staying a few feet away from their prey, these crooks can have their skimming devices scan unprotected credit cards.

The RFID Vault blocking sleeves is an inexpensive, effective, and easy way to ward off identity thieves. Consumers are able to save themselves from the hassle of being an identity theft victim through the use of this product.
