Title: Safety from theft
Post by: GreatBigBore on August 04, 2011, 12:13:14 AM
Hey, I want in, but I'm not clear on how to secure my BC against theft. I understand that nothing is completely secure, but I'm wondering how much work it will be (or how much it will cost me) (or how hard the learning curve is) to keep my BC at least as safe from theft as though it were under my mattress in my house. Anyone have any thoughts? Where can I find out about all the theft-safety issues and how to deal with them?

We can't prevent theft but we can protect your wallet so if anything were to happen to it i.e  erased/lost/destroyed   it could be replaced. Check out my sig and ask any questions thanks!

Thus protecting your wallet prevents theft as well???
