I know that for credit cards with RFID there are solutions to prevent unauthorized parties from reading the data for fraudulent purposes
If I know that my card 99% of the time is only going to do payments via chip, how can I shield the mag stripe so it can't be read? Tampering or removing it is not an option as in some stores in my country and mostly all of US' stores the mag stripe is still used
Is there something equivalent for the mag stripe as there is for RFID (put a thin foil of lead in a cardboard sleeve for your credit cards)
I was thinking of putting a piece of aluminum in the portion of the mag stripe that will not go into chip readers but since aluminum is a non magnetic material I'm wondering if it'll work
