" Modern times come with their own special brand of troubles. Take, for instance, identity theft, which sounds like something that would never happen to you\u2014or a minor annoyance if it did\u2014until some cyber-thief actually finds their way into bank account and drains it of your drinking charity fund. How does that happen? Well, if you&amp;#039;ve replaced a bank card in the last decade or had a passport issued since 2006, it comes with a handy dandy chip embedded within to help transmit your own very personal data to merchants and other official-type people who need it to do their jobs.  But some clever people with poor moral fiber have created devices which can pick-up these waves of data, which\u2014not to sound paranoid\u2014ostensibly makes you a moving target every time you&amp;#039;re in public. The solution to this threat, is relatively easy and comes in using a RFID-blocking wallet to protect your cards. Most that we&amp;#039;ve found err on the boring side, but this one, from the brand W\u00FCrkin Stiffs is based on the popular &amp;quot;magic&amp;quot; wallet style, and contains a thin layer of alloy within Italian calfskin casing to prevent intruders from swiping your information. The price of $40 is pretty good if you consider the alternative: bankruptcy. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
