How do I prevent hackers from stealing my debit card information? (lemmy.world)

My wife and I keep getting our debit cards stolen online. We notice the charges and are able to dispute them and cancel our cards, but it sure is annoying.

We don't put our card information on suspicious websites. They're on well known websites like amazon and Facebook.

We ran out emails through a data breach checker and it found nothing.

I don't think there's any malware on our devices.

Any idea what could be happening and how to prevent it?

I think we may be on the correct track, sir. I'd encourage you to try out different bank, if it's not much of a hassle.

There's an additional possible test - you may want to ask people that you and your wife know about, who have cards in the same bank, whether they've ever found some puzzling stuff about their financial history there.

Yeah I could try that.

Goodluck.
