KXLY: Feds Probe CdA Debit Card Fraud

The United States Secret Service is investigating a series of frauds in the Coeur d'Alene area in which more than a dozen people had their debit card numbers stolen. Everyone reported the fraud reports using the cards at the Schlotzsky's in Coeur d'Alene, but investigators do not believe Schlotzsky's has anything to do with the thefts. The manager of the store says they are aware of the problem and they are cooperating with authorities to determine what happened. The Secret Service believes the frauds are connected to an international online fraud ring/Melissa Luck, KXLY. More here.

Question: Do you feel safe using a debit card?
