TOUR PSA: Guard your debit card.

[The Owl]

LOL

 

Someone posted a thread like this for the S&A tour.......but it doesn't hurt to reiterate..

 

 

Rush fans are at probably the most risk for pickpockets than at any other concert...... most likely 4 out of every 10 people there have the same pin number.....so guard your wallet carefully at the Rush show...

 

 

[The Owl]

Lets be honest, Im not exaggerating here...... 4 out of every 10 Rush fans have that one particular PIN number.......... am I right?

[LERXST69]

4 out of 10 are stupid???????

 

They are Rush fans........ And stupid????

 

Come on!

 

[The Owl]

What?

[Tarkus406]

I was close to making that my pin but made it something completely random since anyone who knew me would guess it in a heartbeat

[-D-RocK-]

Any known Rush fan who uses 2112 as their pin number deserves to have their debit card stolen and their account emptied.

 

 

Like......seriously.

[Zanadoo]

i included it, but mine's more than 4 digits, so it's all good in the hood

[WIDE-ANGLE WATCHER]

I went with 2112 as my pin # for many years and then finally decided to use a globally safer one....3113...oops, now I'll have to change it again to....411....never mind.

[Jomboni]

I have the same combination on my luggage!

[Mara]

It's my code for a lot of things, but not that. (For example, my password to access my work e-mail is 2112. Anyone who wants to go to town on that is welcome to. Just be sure you return all calls in a timely fashion).

 

Actually - I don't even HAVE a PIN number. I never set one - I just use the card as a credit card because I get $$$ back that way.

 

Keep your wallet close anyway. 99.9% of clerks never bother to check ID against the name on the card.

guilty......

[daveyt]

i keep my wallet in my front pocket and it's 2112

[tst4eko]

Anytime I go to a concert or any large crowd gathering, I ALWAYS move my wallet to my front pocket.

[Mara]

I will add that at concerts, my wallet is in my pocket. I do carry a small purse, but just fill it with contraband food & drink and whatever. Anyone ripping off my purse isn't going to get anything of value.

[Clue69Less]

I bet you 2112 bucks you can't guess my pin number!

[vaportrails14]

I think it's wise to always have your wallet in your front pocket. Debit cards seem an unnecessary risk; even though V/MC ones have the same federal protections as credit cards, it's the"freezing of funds" that can slow down the process. I use credit cards 99% of the time. They're easy, convenient, secure, provide protection, and some even literally pay you to use them. Edited August 27, 2010 by upstateNYfan

That's not my pin and I always carry my wallet in my front pocket. I hate sitting on a wallet...lol

Will you give me 2112 guesses ... and the first 2111 don't count?

Related: consider carrying your wallet in your front pocket by default, not just when you're concerned about pick pockets. I've got two herniated disks in my lower back, partially because when I sat, I sat off-balance. Seriously. It's fine for almost everyone, but if you're going to have lower back problems, sitting with a wallet in your back pocket will accelerate the damage.

 

I don't use 2112 for my pin, but I did get it for my Google Voice number
