    Spoiler to save you from that shitty site

    However, scammers are drilling holes in contactless payment screens and damaging the sensor.

    The holes force customers to swipe their card for payment. Thieves have then placed skimming devices on these damaged machines and stealing card information.

    Courtenay said most customers won't even notice the hole has been place there.
