Supplementary notes

This type of fraud involves cards being stolen whilst in transit – after card companies send them out and before the genuine cardholders receive them. Properties with communal letterboxes, such as flats and student halls of residence and people who do not get their mail redirected when they change address are all vulnerable to this type of fraud.
