Instead of signing my credit card, I write "Ask for ID". Most vendors don't check the signature anyway, but those who do are usually prompted to ask for my ID, which is my hoped outcome. I've been a victim of credit fraud several times via both theft and skimming so it's an interesting topic to me.
- scruple 9y agoThat hasn't been my experience at all. I write "Please Check ID" in the signature block on my cards and I think that, in the last 9 years that I've been doing this, I've been asked for my ID all of one or two times. I do notice when cashiers, etc..., flip the card around and I just don't think they actually read or process what is written there. Or they just don't care.
