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!
