While browsing the internet today, I came across a post from an online business magazine that recommends writing down your PIN directly on your debit card! This is described as a special "life hack." Should I now write down my PIN directly on my debit card?

Loading...I'm flying to Spain to visit my grandparents, and I'll be staying and eating with them for 11 days. Theoretically, I only need money for shopping. You can pay by card these days (I have a credit card), and it usually works in cafes/bakeries, etc., too. So, I'm thinking of bringing €200 in cash, and…
I'm going to receive €140,000 into my account. Will this money be taxed? And if so, how much?
Hello, I've tried ordering something on Amazon several times over the past few days, using my bank account as the payment method. And every time a few minutes after placing the order, I get a text message saying the order has been canceled and that I should reorder with a credit card. Why is this?
The following situation: I originally opened an account for my now adult daughter (18), which was intended for driving school and other such things. I am divorced. My daughter lives at her father's house. She is still in school and will finish next year. She has no income of her own. Our other daughter, who…
What is a credit card? I'm not really sure what it is. I have an EC card, a checking account, and I would like to have a credit card for use abroad or because sometimes my EC card isn't enough for payments. But is a credit card simply an EC card with more features? Does…
Because I was given until tomorrow to pay a creditor and I have the option of a real-time transfer, but if the creditor, in this case O2 telecommunications provider, where I haven't paid my two-month bills and now have an outstanding amount of €70, if I don't pay, will they contact a lawyer or will…
Not recommended.
It is more helpful if you write the PIN in a phone number on a note. Ideally to other phone numbers that are also existent.
Name the number “Oma Heidi” or otherwise as and the easiest thing is to choose the last 4 digits of a mobile phone number. Not as last number and not first. The first are mom and dad with the respective phone number. And when you note the grandparents, you leave a grandmother and replace it with “Oma Heidi”.
You stick this note with Tesafilm so that the font does not disappear so quickly and put it in the wallet.
As a thief, I would find a note with phone numbers in the wallet quite noticeable and suspect something. Who’s got notes with numbers today instead of saving them in the phone? Would probably on good luck simply sample from three numbers the last 4 numbers 😄
I didn’t call a condition to be the last four.
Mobile phone numbers today have minimum 7-8 digits behind the dial. There are different variations for 6 numbers.
I know my PIN. For EC cards and SIM cards. The rest is safely stored there
Would then rather use a busy business card that doesn’t look like a relationship. That would be less noticeable. Knowing PIN is still the most sensible option.
No, no.
If your EC card is lost, your money is also gone
The report also says you should write the FALSCHE Pin on it.
This would cause the card to be drawn when using the PIN after 3 x incorrect entry, and thus you will get it back
You know the report? 😲
was linked to the question in demand.
You’re spreading untruth. In this article, it is not that you should write DIE PIN on the map, but quote:
“Purch a sticker with a wrong PIN on your bank card.”
You can do that if you leave your wallet out of the butt pocket like so many men, so that it is really stolen, or if you put your handbag on top of the car roof as a woman, then you can cool in the car. I’m wearing my cards and notes in a chest bag under the shirt. He’s been over a robbery in Rio de Janeiro before I got rid of something.
Isn’t it a bit complicated to roll up under the shirt with Lidl at the checkout to get the card or bills out of the bag? ☺️
As long as the damn knot in the rubber cord does not start again: no. You can pull the bag out before you get the cashier’s still busy, then he’s gonna stick in front of the belly.
No way!
If you record the PIN directly on the card and your card is stolen or lost, any money can take it off as long as you notice it and leave it locked. It is also possible that the bank considers this to be grossly negligent and does not replace the damage.
This is about a false Note PIN on the map, hoping that the thief/finder enters them three times and thus blocks the map.
This does not come out of the question and the link was added later.
There are enough people who are so stupid to note their PIN on the map or to note a note next to the map.
It’s totally stupid. What if you lose the card and notice it later? ? Then your account is empty and you can’t even do anything about it
With the real PIN, of course. But the article is about a false Note PIN on the map, hoping that a finder/ thief will enter them three times and thereby lock the map.
Since EC cards no longer work since 2007, there is nothing against it.
The idea of the post is to write a false pin to move the thief to stimulate the three-dimensional pin input as quickly as possible, after which the card is drawn in.
No, that certainly did not suggest a serious online magazine. Either you’ve read yourself or it’s a joke magazine.
It’s about a false PIN to write on the map, hoping that a thief enters it and thus blocks the map.
Of course, that’s glowing.
They have written that one false PIN should write to the EC card. That makes sense.
if it is recommended, then you should do it!
This is the best way to exclude your bank from any liability when your card is lost.
