I can confirm about the aluminium foil, I made a aluminium foil hat and so far nobody has been able to read my thoughts, stay safe out there peeps.

This guy is a genius I’ve seen him on many podcasts, he’s a very dangerous man who uses his skills for good.

As an IT, I don't even want to share this, my IT friends and family might do this.

RFID blocking wallets are the real scam here.

So the tinfoil hat guys where on to something 🤔

Thankyou for all you do, you are a lovely young man 😘

Another way, which I found out by accident, is if you keep your credit card on top of each other. It will try to read them but will get mixed info because it's reading all the credit card as one. stack more than one credit card in your wallet and try just scanning your wallet.

This doesn't work. It can't get the CVC number, you can't save or emulate it either. All it does is shows you the type of card, the number, the expiry, and the country. You can't make any transactions with it.

Imagine someone walks up to you taking the crouching tiger stance and starts rubbing a flipper zero against your leg... 😅😂

Card chip used dynamic data for transactions. Also cvv/cvc code is not electronically stored

[BigJake]

An Altoids tin also works with the duel purpose of camouflage

Misinformation. There are multiple levels of safeguards on modern cards to prevent exactly this situation. RFID wallets are mostly a scam unless you are carrying around an RFID access badge, which are more vulnerable to scanning than credit cards.

I have a flipper and I was showing my mom, daughter and her mom this. I rubbed the flipper up against her wallet and repeated back her credit card information. She was like WTH

[sanikki]

Why dont you tell the people that there is a 7 layer security on a Credit card?! You can do nothin with that second layer data at all. Way more interesting is the Option to clone hotel access cards. Thats really scary.

[Eon-vids]

The flippers zero account review information that’s usually just available on the outside of the card and it doesn’t support two way communication making it unable to complete transactions

[DavyJeremy]

So do i wrap my wallet in aluminium, or just the cards

[joshuarowell]

But the flipperzero can't read credit card information because it's not a nfc card

[WillyNagin]

There are RFID blocking wallets you can purchase. Or if you don't feel like spending money on one aluminum foil will work.

So where can I get the device you’re using
