Use your card for one thing. To withdrawal money. That is it!
Don't use it at mom and pop stores. You are just asking for fraud. Don't use it at a gas station. You are just asking for fraud.
NEVER leave money on the card that you don't intend to withdrawal immediately. You are just asking for fraud!
If you have $10K in your account, go to an ATM and get it out in cash. Either leave it in their wallet or your wallet. But never leave $1K sitting on the card for days. You never know when a retailer you used it at is going to get hacked and somebody is going to try and use the card. It will be sold, resold and resold again. If you see suspicious activity order a new card immediately. Or... you are just asking for what happens to you.
