NOTICE: At this time I have removed Skim Plus from the store. These versions do not seem to work on newer devices from reports I have gotten via reviews and I have chosen to not keep updating them every time Google changes or restricts functionality etc. In addition, Skimmers have been found that do not broadcast their blue-tooth signal and these Skimmers rely on the previously connected device to re-connect to them. There are also Skimmers not using blue-tooth at all, but a cellular connection to upload the stolen cards. At this time there is no way to use a cellular phone to detect either of these as both Apple and Google have prevented this in their API's. The best way to prevent your credit or debit card from being stolen is to simply go inside and pay or use Google Pay or Apple Pay at the pump.
"The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly."

Skim Plus gives you the ability to Scan for Bluetooth Skimmers placed on or in devices such as Fuel Pumps and ATM's which steal your Credit or Debit Card Information.
Criminals are getting more sophisticated with their techniques when it comes to stealing our Credit or Debit Cards. Now with Bluetooth, all these criminals have to do is pull up at the Gasoline Pump and Download your Credit Card Information from the Nearby Bluetooth Skimmer they placed in the machine. This wireless technique helps prevent these criminals from being caught since they no longer need to open the machine to retrieve stolen credit card information. This upcoming year we will see more Credit and Debit Card theft than ever before and the New Chip Cards are still subject to this.
You NEED Skim Plus, don't trust the unbroken Security Labels these criminals buy Online.
When using Skim Plus all you need to do is hit Refresh, this will quickly search for any Bluetooth Skimmer hardware near you up to 100 meters or 330 feet. It will then let you know if any known Bluetooth Skimmers are present before you swipe your card.
Skim Plus marks detected Bluetooth Skimmers onto a Map so you can see all the skimmers which were found across the globe and stay far away from those locations when you use your Credit or Debit Card. This is so you know that a Bluetooth Skimmer had been detected at a specific Gas Station or ATM. This also lets Law Enforcement know where a Skimmer has potentially been spotted.
Skim Plus has been tested by Authorities with Success across many different types of Bluetooth Skimmers. We will keep the app up-to-date with any new reports from the field.
