Card secrets: what to show and what to keep
Card number, expiry date, CVV, PIN and SMS code: what each one is for, what you can tell whom, and why no one should ever ask for your PIN.
One photo, one big problem
Leyla got her first salary card and, full of joy, posted a photo of it on social media: "I'm independent now!" The card number and expiry date were clearly visible.
Two days later, a payment from her card went through at an unknown online shop.
Never post a photo of your card
Some websites accept payment with just the number and expiry date, and a scammer can try to get the rest some other way, such as a fake call or message. Don't send a picture of your card to social media or to any "manager".
