The simple way to avoid card cloning at toll gates and petrol stations
The best way to prevent your bank card from getting cloned or skimmed is to avoid inserting it into any devices and instead use contactless payments or withdrawals whenever possible.
Nearly all bank cards issued today have a Europay, Mastercard, and Visa (EMV) chip, which makes them very difficult to tamper with or clone, unlike older chip-less cards.
