As credit cards have become a powerful payment instrument, it is paramount to acknowledge and address the potential risks linked to these cards, especially credit card fraud. While credit card fraud can take various forms, there are proactive measures you can implement to safeguard your funds and personal information.

Moreover, it may lead to temporary damage to their credit scores, thereby hindering their ability to secure new credit for a certain period.

  • Cardholders
