still in my wallet, but someone was on a shoping spree at Next with it...
Had they scanned your card then ?      I have a "Blackout" card in with my card fold that is  .."supposed"  to block any scanning .   

I notice my bank has cranked up security slightly for online banking .   first its  a 10 figure number ...... then your pin  in the order they ask for .......then four letters from your 18 letter password  , that they ask for  .... then they text a 6 figure number to your phone that you type in .

Our joint account is with nationwide. If I log into it on my laptop they send me a text too my mobile. If I log into it on our iPad there is no additional security.

Best not lose the iPad

Just read this thread and it reminded me that I was going to set up the banking app on my iPad.

Did that and found 3 fraudulent transactions done online on Monday, when I was in a meeting with a client!

So my business debit card has been done and is now cancelled.

 
I think one of the big dangers is  when you use Wi-Fi  ..hence  , as one of Britain's leading experts in computer sciences       :C     the links between my PC -- Hub--Printer  remain hard wired .
