My Debit Card


Quite busy this morning because I went to reduce my balance in this debit card account to a small amount. I did this because someone had all his money in his account wiped out. It was due to his stupidity by providing the details of his debit account over the Internet to someone who claimed he was from WhatApps. He was told his WhatApps account was will be closed if he did not pay the subscription fees of 99 cents. He was asked to pay via his debit card.Thinking it was only 99 cents he gave "WhatsApp" all the details about his debit account. Then the scammer withdrew all his S$1,000 in his account.

Many would know that debit cards are very useful for payment of goods that we buy. The card holder also get good discounts. An example is whenever I put petrol in my vehicle I get a 4 % discount.

The danger is that if you lose or get the card stolen, the other person could used it to make payment or withdrawal. The money will be immediately deducted from your bank account.

Afternoon weather:


Rain in the late afternoon, heavy in some areas but light where I am staying (north-east) Temperature @ 4 pm is 29C and PSI is 56 (moderate)
