Field testing and fraud statistics indicate that remote contactless card skimming in public spaces remains a negligible threat due to the rapid signal decay of Near Field Communication and the limited utility of encrypted data. While relay attacks are technically feasible, they are commercially impractical for large-scale theft compared to online fraud, reaffirming the inherent security of current RFID payment protocols for mass deployment.
