Review from warren street on Strong VPN
I’ve never had any problems with using credit cards on the internet for years (and I’m a pretty heavy user as I run an internet business) until went to the USA for a few months (I’m normally in UK) and needed a VPN to access iPlayer, etc. Very quickly after using strongVPN several credit cards had fraudulent transactions and had to be cancelled, which was very annoying as I was abroad and thus didn’t have access to these cards for ages until the bank sent them to my home address and someone could pick them up from there and send them to me. I’m pretty convinced someone has found a way to watch for credit card details through the VPN. A similar thing happened to me a later time using Pure VPN. Basically I think you should expect anything you do using a VPN to be publicly visible and therefore only use it for the things you have to – watching netflix/iplayer, checking what ads display on your sites in different countries, etc – and never keep it on afterwards
