Scammers target shoppers with distraction in parking lot 

Transcript:
W6EBQ. W6 ABQ. W6 ABQ, go ahead. Yeah, I'm Steven here, KO6EBQ. Ray's not alone. I just did a quick search out there, and there is a scam here in California, so he's not a one-off. called the $20 distraction scam, though it doesn't go into details, but it says exactly what Ray's saying is that he was offered a $20 bill and then they were able to get his debit card or personal items. So it's not a one-off. I guess be forewarned. Yeah, but Steve, and the disconnect here is being offered the $20 bill is one thing and opening your wallet, great. But there's got to be more to this. What do they do once you have it open? Oh, agree. I was just seeing if it was a one-off, and apparently it's a unknown issue out there. So how they do it? I don't know. It'd be interesting to know more about it. Ray, I think we'd like you to go back down to the Walmart parking lot and do it again, and this time pay closer attention. be illegally armed. Yeah, I'm sure. And there was another comment? Yeah, W-1ATV. I think the way that it works, it doesn't work if you don't have a credit card, but all these cards these days have an RFIT chip-in. That's what you were talking about earlier. And if they can get close enough, they can scan that. So I think what happens is you pull your wallet out and you get scanned. You can get it off the car. Now they have that. They may already have your pin number from somewhere else. And boom, they got you now. If he didn't have his credit card, you left it or didn't have it, it got lost. I don't know if that would work.
