This. All of the point of sale readers I have seen require the card to be almost touching it or in physical contact with the display. There is no power or battery in the card, so the receiver has to a supply it. Maybe the crooks have some monster powerful reader.
My CC company has my back, and if their card gets compromised, it is their loss, not mine. I am not even a little worried about it. If the CC companies were worried about it, the card would come in a protective sleeve.
No tin foil hats for me.
