Skinner they can't find their skimmer start bakery so it's almost like a husband and wife team arguing about you know where's the car keys the cops are still searching for mr. and mrs. skimmer so what on earth can you do to protect yourself and your credit card digits well gas station owners are seeking new ways to protect their pumps like locks and alarms here are some other things that you can do check your account most credit card companies will suck up any loss if you report it within 60 days choose wisely choose a pump near the attendant skimmers prefer to target pumps in the shadows and pay inside it's time-consuming but it's a whole lot safer I'm Nick Watt for nightline in Los Angeles [Music]
