But don't you think the "credit card sized device" will again be used for fraudulent purposes?
Maybe to trace EM emissions or something else?
- ChuckMcM 8y agoPerhaps, but the gist of the article is that you basically won't be able to detect a skimmer most of the time. But their technique does detect skimmers (all the time when they tested it). What I was wondering was if you could carry something in your wallet to easily check for skimmers. A CC sized think PCB with a thin package on it would be idea, and then a paper overlay to create uniform thickness.

- ChuckMcM 8y agoSome places have automated rollers that move the card in and out of the machine. I would not want to lose my skimmer detector by having it getting hung up inside the machine.
