Nearly two-thirds (72%) of people in Britain are concerned about credit card fraud, 71% of adults are concerned about bank card fraud, 64% are concerned about identity fraud and 55% of the nation is concerned about bin raiding — the process of searching through bins to obtain personal financial information to commit fraud.
