My new ATM card arrived today so I cut the old one into small pieces, and threw the pieces in three different trash cans in three different locations in the city (my office, at the bus stop, and outside a restaurant

What?? That's not even a choice! Respect the integrity of the fake poll!!!

:P

Your fake poll clearly is flawed as it doesn't give enough options. FINE!

(a) paranoid.

(e) adorably paranoid.

See! Look what you did to the fake poll! The methodology was flawless!

(b)Sensibly Cautious!

People are crazy. You never know what they'll go dumpster diving for.

[kerosinkanister]

Exactly!

(b) sensibly cautious but also a little bit of (a) paranoid. I do cut mine up into pieces but then I end up throwing them away in the same trash. :)

The message I'm getting is cautiously paranoid

I've done that before, not the actually going to different locations bit, but I've thrown half in one bin and half in the other so the whole thing is never thrown out at the same time.

I dunno if this is the rule everywhere but since chip and pin here they have blamed the card own for card cloning or fraud because they should have been more careful.

I saw this article with this really sophisticated skimmer attached to an ATM to read people's card details and PIN numbers. Scary!

Just because you are paranoid doesn't mean they aren't out to get you.

I like the way you think
