GWorld Works to Further Increase Cardholder Security

As part of its on-going effort to protect cardholder numbers, the GWorld Card Program recently installed new software to allow the masking of GWorld card numbers on printed receipts. This minimizes the potential for identify theft.

Even with the new masking protection, users should review the transaction history online at the GWorld Web site, suspend the card immediately if it is lost, and immediately report to the GWorld Card Office any activity that appears fraudulent. For more information, visit Gworld.gwu.edu or call 994-1795.
