    This fucking pisses me off. No wonder my credit card details were stolen last month. I only ever use NFC.

    That’s their one shot. No more mobile payments for me. Deactivated now.

      Did you read the article? Unless someone had physical access to your (unlocked) phone and was able to pin an app, then tap it against specialized hardware (unlikely you could get a normal card terminal to run this exploit), it’s extremely unlikely that this is how your details got stolen.
