Many people use credit and debit cards for day-to-day transactions. If they don’t keep careful track of these cards, they are easy targets for credit card fraud perpetrators.

Credit card fraud prohibits the following activities and more:
- Using a credit card knowing it was stolen or unlawful.
- Using a credit card knowing it was forged, revoked, or expired.
- Using another’s card without his or her consent.
- Claiming to be a credit card user without the user’s permission.
- Claiming to be the credit card user when the card hasn’t been issued.
- Selling a credit card when you’re not the issuer.
