What if you could ask your bank/lender to issue a "fake" credit card, that when used for transaction immediately signaled fraud? The fake "account" of this card could be linked to your real account(s) and when accessed would prevent access to your real account(s) automatically. Access could prompt notification
to cardholders of unlawful use of their card- helpful if the owner didn't realize the credit card/wallet/purse had gone missing. While credit card companies do offer fraud liability for their cardholders, this could be another line of defense. Card could be used as general defense, or when going out and traveling light.

I think you could bake most of this yourself by getting two cards and then saying one (the platinum one) is stolen, but this is a good idea. (+) |

Thanks for the comments. Good point, you would have to prevent against the cardholder abusing the system. Mousetraps and crabs could work too! |

add razors to the edges and throw it at fraudsters
- aiming mostly for the neck/face area - for even
more defense |
