Genie47 1st Gear June 10, 2005 Share June 10, 2005 As long as you self swipe or see them swipe it, it is OK. For instance, petrol purchases. Lots of places got self swipe. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hihi Neutral Newbie June 10, 2005 Share June 10, 2005 I advised u guys to use cash for payments in m'sia... my credit card account was been illegally used. HSBC called me. and now I already received the billing. from the transactions records and my memories recall, there is indeed something fishy about the waiter during my last transaction... it was in JB's city sq, SEED Cafe... the staffs there might not be "clean".. Guys, avoid card payment in m'sia, esp JB... so what happened in the end? did the bank manage to stop the transaction? or you still have to pay?

Redz Clutched June 10, 2005 Share June 10, 2005 agreed. but this sounds a bit scary. wonder why credit card is still not safe proof. i remember we also had incident here in one of the petrol station. that was a few yrs back...same tactic used.

Genie47 1st Gear June 10, 2005 Share June 10, 2005 I do not offer to them to swap. It is always me who swaps at th pump. If it cannot be accepted. I move to the next kiosk. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redz Clutched June 10, 2005 Share June 10, 2005 mine is always offered them. so far no problem hopefully it stays as it is. coz, it's quite useful for me to chk my petrol expenses per mth based on the statement received every mth Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
