I work in retail and notice progressively more people using RFID Blocking Card Protectors (sleeves) such as: http://www.idstronghold.com/Credit-Card-RFID-Blocking-Sleeves/products/5/

I have no affiliation with the company, and I'm sure there are others with similar products.

A smart thing to do. There are some clever criminal minds out there.

Thank you for this important information, J_B. It seems that when ever there's a technology breakthrough there will be a chink in security for ill-gotten uses.
