BBB reminds you to slow down to thwart credit card skimmers

Sioux Falls Police Department
A credit card skimmer found on a Sioux Falls ATM in 2015.

This interview originally aired on "In the Moment" on SDPB Radio.

Credit card skimmers attach over a retail store's card reader, ATM or gas station pump to steal your financial information as you swipe.

Skimmers were found earlier this year at two Rapid City Walmarts.

Jessie Schmidt is the vice president of the South Dakota region for the Better Business Bureau. She shares tips for how to spot a skimmer or fraudulent charges from a scammer.
