Trail of crumbs, anyone?
Thought for the day: How many credit cards do you have?
Now – how many of those do you use online…?
The correct answer should be exactly one. And not the one with the biggest credit line, either.
If you must use a major credit card for online purchases (and these days it’s hard to avoid), set aside one for online use only. I touched on this and a few other related points last year, and they still hold true. So buckle your seatbelts and surf safely.
