Internet Scam: Posting Your Debit / Credit Card Online

I can file this one under, "What were you thinking?????"

There is a page now on Facebook (I'm not going to point you to it) that is collecting up postings they find on Facebook of people who are posting photos of their actual debit or credit card - usually to show they got their new card or something like that. But really? Did they not think scammers would be shocked to see how easy they have made it for them to steal their card number? Do they think the scammers are not on Facebook looking for ways to scam users ALL the time?

Fortunately, the above mentioned (but not revealed) page began shaming users into removing the photo of their card and some even deleted their account - but as we all kind of suspect... nothing is really completely deleted on Facebook.

C'mon people - think!
