How Safe Is Your Pin? – Infographic

Check out this infographic looking at how safe your pin number is. It seems there’s quite a trend in pin numbers and some are much easier to guess than others. As tempting as 1234 might be and as easy to remember as it is, steer clear. Card thieves, even if they only have one guess, seem likely to go with it. With identity fraud on the increase it’s best to play it safe when it comes to your pin number.

I like the advice to choose one that’s not memorable in anyway. Probably quite handy on a drunken night out if you don’t want to wake up to a wallet full of receipts that you have no recollection of accruing. Sometimes I wish my pin number was easier to forget! From backgroundcheck.org.
