I thought my bank's new fraud alert system was just a hassle until it stopped a $1,200 charge on my card last month.

Those systems create a false sense of security. They often block legitimate purchases and cause more headaches than they prevent. The hassle just isn't worth it for most people.

But how much fraud are we actually talking about here? Most people never deal with it, so the extra steps feel pointless.
