The purpose of this story is to tell you or remind you that you can be skimmed with your credit card in your hand, wallet or handbag.

Hi Jim. Many things today including banking, making purchases, money transfers, id, photography, listening to the radio etc etc can be done on the mobile telephone.
I use mine at times to make phone calls. I say at times because my mobile phone is frequently misplaced. And it’s difficult to find. I can’t locate it by calling it on my landline. The battery in my mobile is mostly flat.
Because you don’t know anything about these features you are not missing a thing. By using your brain and not an electronic personal thinking device you will be avoiding the potential early onset of Alzheimer’s.
The statements below are made by Einstein and Hawking respectively.
1. I fear the day that technology will pass our human interaction. The world will have a generation of idiots.
2. The development of full artificial intelligence could spell the end of the human race.
