"Tips to Uncover Credit Card Skimmers in Massachusetts Supermarkets"

TL;DR Summary
Authorities in New England are warning consumers about credit card skimmers found at retail outlets, including supermarkets in Massachusetts and New Hampshire. Skimming devices, designed to look like legitimate card readers, capture card information when customers swipe their cards. The FBI advises inspecting card readers for loose parts or damage, covering the keypad while entering PINs, and being cautious at tourist spots and gas pumps. If a skimming device is suspected, customers should contact their bank and local law enforcement. No customer data was reported compromised following the recent discoveries in Massachusetts.
