RFID or Radio Frequency Identification, is a term we are hearing more and more of these days. You may also know it as NFC (Near Field Communication). This technology allows for products fitted with it to be inventoried and identified with via a reader, up close or from a distance using radio signals. This technology most likely is in your wallet or purse right now, and someone with a wireless reader can access your info without you even being aware of it, sometimes (with very sophisticated technology) as far as 120 ft. away. It's called Electronic Pick pocketing or E-Pickpocketing. You may use a RFID blocking wallets and sleeves to safeguard yourself.
