Ridgewood NJ, as many of our reader’s are well aware when you fly its mandatory to have a boarding pass to get on the plane.
Right before boarding an airplane we hold onto our boarding passes like our lives depend upon it. But after we board, many, if not all of us, do not care anymore about the boarding pass. Sometimes we leave it in the plane, other times we leave it in the hotel room, or just chuck it in the garbage.
But this careless can get you into so much trouble.According to “Krebs on Security” there is personal information encrypted on your boarding pass. After someone took a screen shot of the bar code on the ticket, you will be amazed of how much personal information that person can get about you: home address, banking info, email address, phone number.
Watch the video and share it for others to learn about the risks and damage of being careless with their boarding pass!
I hate this computer world. Life was much better before.
I would gladly sacrifice this blog and all so-called efficiencies for the end of the computer/Internet age.
Hey, I got to be old and healthy without it.
In fact I spend too much time on my ass with the Internet; I won’t spend for hard copy of newspapers plus Internet costs. Computer plus provider fees. I don’t really think lookin at screens is good for eyes. I don’t care what the “experts” say. And even the radiation emitted from a laptop computer. I would never buy a smart phone. Very rarely use cell. Don’t want my brain cells zapped. Again, I don’t care what the “experts” say. I’ve been down that path with too many “safe” things that are now deemed deadly.
That TSA dude is menacing…
Important info and thank you to the blog for publishing it. I have sent it to many friends.
